The Taylor Nicole's 36" x 37" prop only put 80% load on her big CAT at wide open throttle, leaving plenty of margin for the cage that'll go on for the summer months. A 36" x 42" may be on tap for later on.

Owner's Comments: We are over the top happy with the quality craftsmanship of this boat. Especially the design and woodwork. We are newly retired and can not wait to go cruising and diving this summer. The interior and design is set up very similar to our old sailboat that we used to go cruising on including the solar panels on the roof top, which prohibits us from needing a generator. Very Happy!!!

Speed: 33 MPH GPS
Builder: This is the first 30 Calvin Beal out of the mold. We used the 34 CB top and shrunk it to fit. We are very happy with its appearance and performance. This boat was built for hard working lobster fishing, so it was a lot heavier than it could have been. It was very stable and comfortable under foot. She went very well.

38' Calvin Beal w/ FPT C90 550 Launched in Bass Harbor, ME
Just wanted to put up another successful new 38' Calvin Beal build with FPT C90 620 rated at 550 Mhp @ 2530 rpm.
Specs:
38' Calvin Beal - SW Boatworks (Stewart Workman)
Owner: Matt Davis
Boat Name: F/V "Lady Lauren"
FPT engine dealer: James Rich Boatyard (Jamie Thurlow) Bass Harbor ME.
Finisher: Mike Light - Light Fiberglass of Corea Maine
Engine: FPT C90 rated at 550 Mhp @ 2530 rpm
Gear: Twin Disc 2.5:1 w/ live PTO
Wheel: 32" x 34" w/ slight cup Nautilus
Cruise: 2250 rpm = 21.5 knots
WOT: 2530 rpm = 23 knots
Very nice boat. Matt was happy with how smooth the ride was and the performance of the engine, he felt like the engine wasn't even working hard to push the boat was his statement. He liked the fact that he can cruise 19 knots burning around 17.5 gph in a big boat. We all agree that with some lifting rails to make use of the spray that this boat could be a 24+ knot boat and would improve hull efficiency greatly.

Owner's Comments: SW Boatworks: We wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for Wednesday's festivities at the launch of Miss Maggie II. We can't even find the words to describe how much it meant to us. When Miss Maggie II was being lowered into the water we were both getting "choked up".
Owning a boat like MMII has been a dream of ours for a long time. We never imagined she would be so well built and so beautiful. The project has been one of the most exciting things we have ever done . . . and working with you guys has made it even better.
Thanks again.

You won’t believe this but I am burning less fuel in the new boat running it harder than the same engine in my old boat. I burned 15 gallons hauling 260 traps. I was burning 20 in my old boat with the same engine. I couldn’t believe it! --Alec

Builder's Comments: I am very pleased with the performance of the boat. The “new” 9 liter John Deere made a wonderful work package for this boat. The engine sits real low and is very quiet with a lot of power which sailed this boat with ease. This is the first time we used this motor.
During sea trials the boat sailed at 25.4 MPH (22knts). The prop was a littlel small, which allowed the engine to overturn. I am pretty certain we could have achieved another knot .
Phil and his crew did a wonderful job finishing her off. We are planning on having a couple of 38s on hand for this fall.
