55 ft Trawler Yacht Lady K
Designed by Jay R. Benford
A 55 ft design from Jay Benford's catalog. One of the trawler yachts, a range drawn mostly to commission for owners with decades of sea time behind them, which is why so many of them carry variations: each was tailored to somebody's own idea of the ideal liveaboard.
Benford publishes a displacement of 56,000 lb in coastal cruising trim, which is tanks full with the crew and their stores aboard rather than a shipping weight. Plans are sold to owner-builders, and study plans are sold separately for anyone wanting to look before committing.
