2027 McConaghy Boats MC131X

The MC131X is a 131-foot explorer yacht in composite construction, representing McConaghy Boats' vision for a hybrid propulsion system combining methanol fuel cells with diesel power. The design targets extended range of approximately 500 nautical miles and a cruising speed of 18 to 20 knots, positioning the yacht for serious offshore exploration with reduced environmental impact.

As a new build, the MC131X offers the opportunity to specify accommodations and systems to personal requirements. The explorer category and hybrid powertrain architecture are built around capability and range rather than maximum speed, making the boat suited to extended voyages and remote operations.
