LOMOcean Design

LOMOcean Design is a New Zealand based boat design company providing naval architecture, exterior styling, interior design, structural engineering and construction quality management expertise to the private and commercial sector worldwide.

Incorporated in 1993, but with designs dating back to 1986, the company has a comprehensive portfolio of on the water designs reflecting a passion for design versatility. Included are a range of production runabouts and small sail boats, mid sized sports fishers, sailing yachts, commercial fishing vessels, customs and police patrol boats, luxury cruising vessels and super yachts.

A focus on power catamaran design in the mid nineties saw the development of an innovative wavepiercer catamaran, believed to be the first of its type to be built in advanced composite materials and also the first to be specifically built as a private luxury yacht.

Launched in August 1998, and the winner of the prestigious International Superyacht Design Award in the 23-32m power category for that year, Ultimate Lady is a truly impressive craft of 26m (87ft) overall length.

Designed for a keen sports fisherman, Ultimate Lady combines ocean crossing range capabilities with a sprint speed of 30 knots - a dual feat that neither high speed coastal cruisers nor trawler style passage makers are generally considered to be capable of matching.

Her launching has been followed by similar LOMOcean designs and each has been tailored to meet the varying and demanding requirements of their individual owners. Included are the 24m Sampitres, Spirit, Earthrace (later re-named Ady Gil), Planet Solar, Azzum, Patrol One, Polaris, Tatami, Solitaire and others.

The emergence of the wavepiercer catamaran as a motor yacht has stimulated interest (and imitation) around the world and concept drawings are now available for a wide range of wavepiercers designed for a variety of applications.
