BlackBird Boats Models

Designer's comments:

The BlackBird 22 was designed to be a very useful boat, not just something to look at. You will be very reluctant to hide it away. I commend BlackBird on their investment in the tooling, machinery and, most of all, the craftsmanship to produce a fine quality, low maintenance boat at an affordable price.

Blackbird makes four models.
The Blackbird Classic
The Blackbird Classic has an 8 foot deck and an 8 foot cockpit with two front seats with rear facing cabinets and a full bench seat at the back. The ceilings (the interior side linings) are mahogany slats and the floor is linoleum with mahogany inserts --- a very traditional style for a classic mahogany boat. The long front deck of the Classic makes the boat extremely pleasing to the eye. It seats six and sells for $150,000.
The Blackbird Double Cockpit
The Blackbird Double Cockpit has no cabinets as the traditional Classic has but comes with a centre deck behind the front seats either split in the middle for easy access between the front and rear cockpit or as a full deck all the way across which gives a front bench seat for three. This model sits a total of seven and sells for $160,000.
The Blackbird Sport
The Blackbird Sport has a longer deck by 18 inches with an appropriately shortened cockpit. There are no cabinets and newly designed seats and ceilings are upholstered with leather. The hardware is also a new design and the engine is dressed with new features including chromed parts. It seats six and sells for $185,000.
The Blackbird GR
The Gentleman’s Racer is the sexiest and most impracticable boat on the water. The Blackbird GR has a 16 foot deck; the front seats and cabinets are removed and the rear bench seat serves as the driver’s seat with room for two passengers. Leather again prevails; there is a new style windshield with front-deck air-scoops and / or hatches. The customer has engine models not available on any other Blackbird. With the engine, this boat sells for $200,000 - $225,000.
The Blackbird YT
The Blackbird YT is a yacht tender and is in the very early planning stages. It will be able to carry a lot of baggage and six adults minimum. As a yacht tender, it must also be capable of being driven into the garage at the rear of a large yacht or hoisted on board by davits. To meet all these parameters, we would shorten the deck of the Classic and possibly have the passenger’s side of the front deck, hinge upwards to allow for below-deck baggage storage. We would add more seating by wrapping the back seat along the port and starboard sides and removing the cabinets. In addition we would put lifting rings on the bow and at the transom and likely install a power soft top. We would not design or build this model until we intend to exhibit at the Miami boat show
We hope to have a Blackbird Classic, a Blackbird Sport and a Blackbird GR at the Toronto Boat Show in January 2008.
