Projects: Mustang 430 Sports Coupe, Mustang M 56 Sports Flybridge

The new 430 Sports Coupe is an exciting project development for the new Mustang Marine team. This is an innovative Sport Cruiser from the new owners of the Australian Mustang Marine, who seems committed to the continual growth of this builder founded in 1974 and the addition of this new Sports Coupe range is the first of many new developments in the pipeline. Key Features for this project are the Volvo IPS propulsion power with joystick docking system, large swim platform with integrated BBQ station, extensive fully equipped entertainment deck, glass bi-fold entrance patio doors, moulded hard top with glazed sunroof, 2 or 3 cabin layout options and a more innovative fresh European design, let me add North looks outside.
An important project for Mustang, for it's new flagship model the M 56 Sports Flybridge. A Sportfisher of 18 metres of full length with undeniable USA looks, offering comfortable accommodation and high sea keeping qualities, which is the norm for these style of yachts. One of the most distinctive, comfortable and sought out features of the M 56 is without a doubt the enclosed flybridge area, with internal stair case offering an all weather helm station, but also a great socializing area up top with the right comforts. Much appreciated on plan and hoping the real boat will be the same is the galley, located aft of the main saloon, perfect for entertainment with easy communication with the exterior cockpit deck, and the upper bridge thanks to the opposite facing staircase which leads up top. The main deck saloon has also 2 l-shaped settees to fore of the galley, one for dining and an other for socializing. The lower deck reserved all for sleeping accommodation has 3 cabins with 2 heads one of which en-suite. Standard power for the M 56 Sports Flybridge will be twin Caterpillars C12 at 715 hp each. Mustang is estimating a 20 t dry weight, light for a Sport Fisher but achieved thanks to the use of Kevlar in the construction process.
