Hammer
2018 GUNBOAT 57 FOR SALE
HAMMER is a highly customized Gunboat 57′ built for an ardent yachtsman. As his second Gunboat, the owner knew exactly what he wanted to incorporate into the design. HAMMER’S build brief was for a high performance cruising yacht with a powerful sail plan for the light air conditions common in the Chesapeake during the summer months. She is the premier example of the Gunboat 55’/57′ line boasting superior performance to all of her sisters.

HAMMER HIGHLIGHTS
Throughout the build process, every detail of Hammer’s construction was scrutinized to the highest degree. Originally built as a Gunboat 55 the owner felt there was room to further enhance her performance. Her waterline was lengthened and her rig upgraded. Hammer’s mast and longeron are the same same spars used on the Gunboat 60. She carries 20% more sail area that the original design allowing her to match the wind speed in 6-10 knots of true wind. HAMMER’S additional tankage extends her steaming range to over 1,300 nautical miles for longer passages when the breeze inevitably shuts down. Her Galley/Salon up configuration offers exceptional visibility and an opened, airy feel. Moving below decks, Hammer’s staterooms offer lush accommodation and ample cruising storage.
HULL & DECK
Hammer’s composite construction features a core-cell foam sandwich and carbon fiber skins that are infused, vacuum bagged, and post-cured with Gougeon Brothers Pro-Set epoxy resin. Her deck is opened and spacious, featuring Seadek deck panels that offer extreme comfort and superior grip. Hammers enormous trampolines create a great working space for sail changes and second as an equally functional space to relax while underway or at anchor.
SALON & GALLEY
Hammer’s bridge deck incorporates both her galley and main salon into one open space. The large windows provide exceptional visibility. Her aft curtains open seamlessly to the outdoor elements, if so desired. The large galley has an abundance of counter space, first-class amenities, and ample storage. The large settee and dinette ensure your friends and family are always nearby while entertaining in this magnificent space. Below deck to port, a large “pantry” offers additional storage for dry goods and additional refrigeration for those long cruises.
ACCOMMODATIONS
Hammer offers exquisite accommodation in three state rooms with three separate heads. Her twin master staterooms feature outstanding views through her outboard hull ports. Large overhead hatches supply excellent ventilation while at anchor. Her twin masters each feature ensuite heads with large showers and generous storage. Her third stateroom aft to Starboard, features a day head. Transom ports flood the space with natural light.
PERFORMANCE
Maximized for the light air conditions of her home waters, Hammer also benefits from significantly greater performance than all of her sisters. Hammer can easily achieve 20 knots of boat speed in moderate breeze. Her higher aspect ratio rig and corresponding daggerboard enhancements also improve windward performance. She can point at 35 degrees…..unheard of numbers for mere, mortal cruising catamarans.
SYSTEMS
All of Hammer’s systems were engineered and executed to the highest standard. Her tried and true Yanmar power offers legendary reliability. Her engine room/machinery spaces are thoughtfully laid out with full access to the engines and all ancillary equipment. Hammer’s Harken Powerpack ensures all sail handling tasks will be met with ease. Her push button mainsheet, cunningham, and daggerboard controls are within easy reach on the pedestal. All lines are run to the helm allowing for simplistic sail management from only two winches. She can be handled by one or two crew with ease.
