A 56-foot bluewater cruising yacht built by Kyle Jackney of Blue Water Yachts receives a full commissioning tour in Mallorca after being unloaded from a container ship and rigged over six weeks.0:54 James Evenson, who assisted with the commissioning, walks through the boat with Jackney, covering construction, layout, and offshore-specific design choices.2:29 The hull uses 16 to 24 alternating layers of fiberglass and aramid fiber (Kevlar), with every other layer being aramid — a construction Jackney claims matches 8–10 mm aluminum in strength, comparable to the Garcia's bottom plating.1:16:51 The boat features a hard dodger with a fully offshore-rated companionway using drop boards to prevent cockpit flooding, integrated sugar-scoop transom stairs (preferred over articulating transoms that can fail offshore), and an 11-foot galley.17:19 The engine room includes a fuel manifold allowing tank-to-tank transfer and polishing via a single valve bypass, a remote engine start/stop panel, a built-in oil-change pump, and tin wiring throughout.1:01:26 Evenson flags the common-rail diesel ECU as a single point of failure under lightning strike or power surge, with no easy workaround unlike older mechanical engines.1:07:47 In-mast furling is standard; Dorade vents are an owner option Evenson would eliminate for cleaner deck space.14:12 More information at BlueWaterYachts.com.
