THE BRAND

MCCONAGHY

McConaghy Boats was founded in Australia in 1967 by John McConaghy, with the intention of applying new and innovative materials to the production of skiffs, Tornado and A-class catamarans. In the 1970s, it was one of the first companies in the world to take pre-impregnated carbon fibre from the aerospace industry and use it in the construction of boats. And in the late 80s, it combined that with Nomex Honeycomb core technology to create cutting-edge 70ft-plus racing yachts.

The company would go on to have great success with its maxi yachts in the Rolex Sydney Hobart race, before opening a Chinese shipyard in 2006 to increase capacity and to support production of its semi-custom yacht lines. And today, McConaghy builds powercats and luxury multihulls, as well as highly advanced racing yachts, all with plenty of customisation potential, including personalised layouts and bespoke power solutions.
