\"M29x\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Morris Yachts is continuing to build on the success of their\u00a0M-Series line by introducing a new product extension called the M-Series \u201cX-Type\u201d.<\/p>\n

The new X-Type packages from Morris will be available in three of its M-Series Yachts as the M29x, M36x and M42x. The core focus of the X-Type program is to add a new level of enhanced sailing performance and driver feedback to the quality, craftsmanship and beauty already found within the rest of the M-Series line.<\/p>\n

\u201cOffering an X-Type package with enhanced performance and details is for Morris Yachts what the AMG is to Mercedes Benz or the S-Line is to Audi,\u201d says Morris CEO Doug Metchick. \u201cThese boats are for the type of owner who appreciates having a little more under the hood but also wants the uncompromising beauty, sophistication, quality and luxury one expects from owning a Morris.\u201d<\/p>\n

The concept is simple. Morris started with the award-winning quality, distinctive good looks, and innovative engineering that goes into every M-Series model built in their state-of-the-art facility on the coast of Maine. Then they partnered with Sparkman & Stephens to push the design envelope further in order to ensure maximum sailing performance in all conditions.<\/p>\n

This means that in addition to the list of options that come standard on all Morris Yachts, the X-Type models are also equipped with a powerful high modulus carbon fiber rig from Hall Spars and high-performance 3Di sails from North Sails. Also included is a deeper, high aspect ratio stainless steel fin keel that provides rock-solid stability and enhances sail carrying ability while taking additional weight out of the boat. Each slippery fast hull is faired to ultra-precise tolerances and covered with drag reducing bottom paint. A unique carbon fiber and teak wheel delivers finger-tip control and a more performance-oriented look. And speed stealing weight has been removed by using resin infusion on the hull and covering the deck with simple non-skid rather than teak.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve just splashed our first M29x and the owner is ecstatic,\u201d says Metchick. \u201cAlready a beautiful boat, the added horsepower makes her a wolf in sheep\u2019s clothing. The boat is a blast to sail.\u201d<\/p>\n

X-Type models from Morris Yachts are refined, rewarding, rocket ship fast, and redefine what a luxury performance boat can be. Call or email us today for more information and to set up a test sail.<\/p>\n
