I take it that should have been: "... shows in just under 2 minutes how they built this 80ft expedition ketch" which is not the same thing!

I looked at the next vid, about a foiling launch. Very polished and effective. But, 265K euro!! I might be a slightly conservative sailer, but that is 'who would buy it' area. Great for a couple of runs, then??

I can't see the vid but a quarter of a million for a custom 80' boat is pretty good budgeting.

There's something I just 'hate' about these 'About us' pages on websites. Just overblown chest-puffing (BS ).

Our History

In 1985 Lloyd built his first boat, a Davidson 42 named Teddy Bear. Demonstrating a solid dependable work ethic, a methodical approach to adopting new technology and an inherent drive to achieve excellence, led to a steady flow of orders from clients keen to own a Lloyd Stevenson Boat. An impressive portfolio of new builds and countless refits and repairs later, the reputation for quality and fine craftsmanship remains stronger than ever.

For the next thirty years Lloyd and Tracey Stevenson built a dynamic team of New Zealand’s most talented trades people, building some of the world’s finest boats. These many years have helped LSB develop the experience and capacity to respond to the many and varied projects we have been involved with, from private motor and sail boats, to carbon fibre race yachts and cutting-edge custom super yacht tenders.

In-house electrical, painting and engineering teams enable LSB to provide one stop project management for your new build or refit, and despite the many years of experience LSB prides itself on adopting new technologies around construction whilst retaining the ethos and quality of traditional boat building.

Our team, experience, and facilities enable us to offer our clients a world class product and service in all areas of water borne vessels.

Hopefully they are as good as they describe themselves.

Interesting video - thanks for posting.

I'm only jealous really.
