Designed by American naval architect Ed Fry and built by R.B. Dereli, BLACK SHEEP is a great performing downeast style yacht with a finely crafted high gloss cabin and striking teak and holly sole. Helm deck and cockpit feature teak decks. The hull and deck are constructed with E-Glass, carbon fiber, Divinycell and Kevlar and bonded. BLACK SHEEP is powered with upgraded 440HP Yanmar diesels driving Hamilton Jets. With the bow thruster and the jet drives, she handles tight quarters and docking with ease.
