When Clearwater, Florida, native Paul Lokey picked up his new 64 Viking Convertible at the end of 2021, he knew he’d found a winner. Lokey had been looking for a boat that could work as a fierce tournament boat and just as easily switch to an on-the-water viewing area for college sports.
And it was Carmine Galati who led Lokey to the 64.
Titan Yachts’ latest endeavor, the 63-foot Lunatico, charged straight out of the marina like a blue marlin chasing a livey from the moment it touched the water. Jokingly referred to as the “Splash and Go,” the Lunatico set out for the Bahamas two days after it splashed. In a hurry to make it to Marsh Harbour to participate in Skip’s Tournaments, they had limited time for sea trials. “Attention to detail left little room for error. We had great confidence in our work, as did our customer and his captain,” said Russ Garufi, President of Titan Yachts.

Four generations have persevered in keeping the Rybovich family business afloat and hull #6 built at the Michael Rybovich & Sons yard represents many significances. This functionally luxurious 94-footer is the largest boat ever built by the Rybovich clan and the first to feature an enclosed flybridge.
III Amigos is also the first Rybovich to display a straight-sheer profile since Almar was splashed in 2007 and incorporates design cues from the family’s first naval architect and marine engineer—Dusty Rybovich. Despite the many novelties, III Amigos is a classic Rybovich through and through, retaining a clean foredeck, moderately raked house and cold-molded construction techniques.
