MAINSHIP:THE EFFICIENTALTERNATIVE

v

FINE QUALITY MOTOR CRUISERSYOU CAN AFFORD TO ENJOY.

Yachting has always been a highlypleasurable activity, and one that some-how raises its participants above thetrivialities of daily life.

But prior to the introduction ofmodem materials and constructiontechniques, it was a pleasure reserved forthe aristocratic few who could afford tohave yachts custom-built and fitted outto suit their personal tastes.

At Mainship, we've carried on alove affair with yachting for three gener-ations. To us, the pleasures of cruising ona trim and proper motor yacht are time-less. And far too good not to beshared.

So we conceived theMainship line of motor cruisersexpressly to recapture the truejoys ofyachting.^

A noted marine writer and pho-tographer, following a test of the Main-ship 34 on Narragansett Bay, wrote that"we were increasingly aware of the'friendliness' of the boat, the instant 'athome' feeling the boat generated." Andfurther, "a lot of attention has been paidto the nice details that make ownershipof a boat a joy instead of an unendingburden."

We build every Mainship with

have a boat you can not only afford tobuy, but afford to enjoy as well.

We're proud of our MainshipMotor Cruisers, and we think you willagree they are truly "the efficientalternative."

We wanted safe, _^___,^_sturdy craft who's smooth ride , ^and easy handling would puthelmsman and guest alike at ease.We wanted creature comforts as well,with everything from a spacious salon toa fully equipped galley. And we wantedboth economy and reasonable perform-ance.

The trawler design certainly of-fered plenty of room, safety and durabil-ity. And the classic lines were appealing.But we wanted a bit more speed over thewater and a brighter, more luxuriousinterior. So we combined the classic ap-peal and economy of the trawler with amore easily driven hull, modem con-struction materials and techniques, andthe latest in conveniences. The result isa design that makes yachting fun again.

safety, comfort, and reliability squarelyin mind. Then fit them out withMarinePac, the most completestandard equipment package available.

But most importantly, ouruniquely efficient construction tech-niques and the buying power thatMarinePac allows, enables us to de-liver a fine quality, extremely wellequipped yacht at a very affordableprice.

And when you consider that theMainship 34, for example, consumesvery little fuel (Approximately what atypical family automobile burns), you
