The project continues to progress on Stanley Paris’ 63′ offshore cruiser. Here are a few pics of the hull being pulled from the mold. The hull has been moved to Building 11 for the rest of the spring as Lyman-Morse continues to work on it.

These photos show that while the yacht is still very much a work-in-progress, its final shape is now apparent.

Between the watertight carbon-fiber bulkheads, crews will now install the interior, which has been built separately in a full-size mockup alongside where the hull now sits. Meanwhile, Kiwi Spirit’s deck has been infused with resin and will be moved to the hull in a few weeks, when it has fully cured.

Launch is scheduled for early August, after which the owner plans a series of training voyages before his record attempt in November 2013.
