The Apogee 50 is a definitive example of the "Bermuda Series" philosophy, a design ethos championed by naval architect Chuck Paine and brought to fruition by the master builders at Able Marine in Southwest Harbor, Maine. Conceived as a highperformance, bluewater voyaging yacht, the Apogee 50 was engineered for sailors who prioritized structural absolute integrity and the ability to maintain high average speeds in offshore conditions. Unlike many massproduced yachts of its era, the Apogee 50 was built using advanced composites—often involving Kevlar and Eglass reinforced epoxy—to ensure a hull that was both lighter and significantly stronger than traditional solid fiberglass. This model represents the bridge between the traditional Maine aesthetic and modern offshore engineering, characterized by its elegant lines, a purposeful reverse transom, and a lowprofile cabin trunk.
