Michael Peters is among the most renowned yacht designers working today, with hundreds of designs in a career that dates back to the early 1970s. His studio, Michael Peters Yacht Design, has worked with some of the biggest names in the industry, including Azimut, Bertram, Cabo, Chris-Craft, Hinckley and Viking’s Valhalla Boatworks. Peters also has designed one-of-a-kind vessels with the master craftspeople of Brooklin Boat Yard and Van Dam Boats.
Today, Peters splits his time between his childhood stomping grounds of California’s Catalina Island and Sarasota, Fla., where his studio is located, along with a Bertram 25 that he’s “restored actually a couple times” during the 30 years it’s been on a mooring near his home.
