With her graceful lines and symmetrical
proportions, the 157-foot (47.9-meter) tri-deck motor yacht Lady Linda from
Trinity Yachts blends the best of contemporary and traditional styling. The
owners’ second Trinity, she is the proud result of their extensive yachting
experience. "The owner and his wife were very involved in all the minutia," says
Billy Smith, the shipyard’s vice president. They participated extensively in the
design process, from the sight lines to the stonework, he reports.
The owners and Evan K. Marshall Design collaborated for
Lady Linda’s interior. Highlights include the master suite with its large
his-and-hers bathrooms, the skylounge with its panoramic views and the private
dining salon, which seats 10. Eight guests are accommodated in a combination of
VIP and guest suites below. A striking marble package runs throughout the yacht,
installed by artisan Jeff Homchick of Seattle.
Trinity’s design team handled the naval architecture for the
aluminum-hulled displacement vessel, which has a 28-foot beam and a draft of
seven feet, two inches. Twin Caterpillar 3512B diesels provide an impressive top
end of approximately 20.5 knots and a cruising speed of 18 knots. As with
all Trinity projects, Lady
Linda is ABS certified and MCA compliant.
Just more than one year since the shipyard closed, with many of
its workers made homeless by Hurricane Katrina, Trinity is enjoying one of its
best years ever, with 17 projects currently under way. Lady Linda is the
latest example of the yard’s fine American technology and
craftsmanship.
