Wynward was the personal yacht of the late Jim Wynne; he lived aboard for eight years and did extensive cruising in the Bahamas and the Florida Keys aboard her.

Some of Jim's accomplishments and designs are the invention and granting of a patent for the inboard/outboard stern drive which he sold to Volvo Penta, the Hatteras 32', Hatteras 36', and the complete Cruisers Inc. line -up to 1991, the complete Pheonix line -up to 1991, as well as models for Albin, Carver, Chris Craft, Cigarette, Donzi, Magnum, Queen Long, Trojan, and many other well-known boats.  Jim also originated the "propeller pocket" or tunnel and he used that design onboard WYNWARD.

WYNWARD combines the qualities of both a planing hull and a displacement hull.  Wynward will cruise economically @ 9kts consuming 8 gallons per hour or she will cruise up to 17 knots for those times when speed is important. 

WYNWARD has many unique design features including 36 patents applied for at the time of build.  There is one ladder from the stern cockpit down to the swim platform, all areas are accessed by stairs.  The machinery space is located all the way aft under the cockpit with very short shafts turning propellers in tunnels eliminating vibration; this machinery space is separated from the rest of the living area by an insulated full bulkhead.  The swim platform is actually part of the Hull increasing the waterline length and inhibiting exhaust mist from being pulled back into the cockpit from her under-transom exhaust.  The hardtop flybridge (Portuguese Bridge) area is accessed by the steps, either port or starboard - the full walk-around bridge deck gives an added sense of security as well as easy access to the foredeck.

Below decks, the Guest Stateroom is forward and has two large comfortable berths, ample lockers, shelves, and hanging locker space with en-suite head and separate shower stall.  Amidships is the full beam Main Salon with the option to have an L-shaped settee or table and chairs, to port is the Full Galley with ample storage, ice maker, full-size fridge with freezer, microwave, and coffee maker.   Aft of the salon, down two steps, is the full-beam Master Suite.  This stateroom has a queen-sized berth on centerline with six oversized drawers underneath, and double hanging lockers.  There is a lady's dressing table to port with eight drawers and an additional mirrored area forward with two drawers.  The En-suite head is to starboard with a full stall shower. The current owner has done many customs upgrades and has left some of the boat undone so the next owner can customize it to their liking.

WYNWARD was built in Medley, Florida by Marina Management and then taken to Dania where she was finished by well-known shipwright Howard Abbey.

Wynward was built to cruise the shallow waters of south Florida and the Bahamas.  She has a shallow draft of less than 4 feet with her keel being the lowest point.  Her design has a full keel with propeller pockets offering excellent protection for the running gear in shallow water as well as providing very good longitudinal tracking underway.
