Our Vision
As a group of highly skilled industry experts, Carbon Ocean Yachts has formed a new company in Rhode Island committed to building excellent custom carbon yachts. We aim to be a leading custom builder providing owners and designers with exceptional yachts.
Carbon Ocean Yachts offers a US based composites builder who combines all the aspects of a world class carbon yacht. Whether a high end cruiser/racer complete with ultra-light-weight aerospace grade furniture, elegant interior solutions, carbon rigging, and custom deck hardware systems or a stripped out racing yacht, Carbon Ocean Yachts is the competitive solution. The Carbon Ocean Yachts experience can be a sailing ready, turnkey product as specified by you the customer and designer.
With race boat methods of composites building in house, owners looking for performance in the cruising setting can expect these same weight savings. Whether the client requires modern or classic interior styling, Carbon Ocean Yacht will accommodate with the same technologies, namely cored veneered panels.
Carbon Ocean Yachts sees the need for a fresh approach to business:
- An open, honest, no nonsense, up-front approach
- Competitive price in world markets
- Exceptional quality delivered on time and on budget
The core of our team consists of Britt Colombo, Toby Mueller, David Lake, Lew Davies, and Mike Danks. Collectively, our skills, accrued through years in the industry, offer a complete building solution with unparalleled quality.
Members of the team have been involved with building high profile racing yachts and cruiser/racers including the Deed of Gift multis, AC version V, Volvo 70s, Open 60s, TP 52s, custom racer / cruisers, custom IRC and entire optimization projects.
The team has experience with a number of well-known designers in the industry including Rogers Yacht Design, BMW Efficient Dynamics, Bruce Farr, Reichel-Pugh, Alan Andrews Yacht Design, Botin & Carkeek, Judel/Vrolijk and Mick Price. Structural engineering firms with whom the team has collaborated include High Modulus, SP/Gurit and SDK Structures.
Carbon Ocean Yachts has taken a long term approach to entering the custom boat building market place. Our goal is to continually seeking new projects in varied segments of the super yacht market.

Carbon Ocean Yachts proudly announces our first secured build, the completion of a Carbon 82. This Rogers Yacht design is an innovative high-speed cruiser racer and scheduled to be delivered in September 2010.
Carbon Ocean Yachts will continue to offer clients turnkey ownership for the Rogers Yacht Design cruiser/racer range Carbon 82 and 94. www.rogersyachtdesign.com
Aside from the cruiser / racer arena Carbon Oceans Yachts is actively seeking new projects that include Volvo 70s, Open 60 and custom IRC designs.
Our reach and focus is global.
