First all-new Hardy designs in build

Since listing the Hardy 42 part-built by Cockwells in our recent awards (see pages 18-22 in this issue), the builder has confirmed the sale of two of its all-new Hardy designs. The first of these is the the Hardy 45AD, designed by Andrew Wolstenholme, which does away with the flybridge (that configuration is available on the Hardy 45, also a new design) and replacing it with an aft deck helm position and removing the internal helm option to maximise saloon space. It’s due for delivery in spring 2024. The Company’s first Hardy 50DS is also in build at its new yard at Ponsharden.

Inspired by the original Hardy 50, this sea-going explorer yacht is the larger version of the Hardy 40DS. It’s due for delivery in spring 2023.
