| All recent updated photos since total refit - Tom Fexas design, BELLE NOIR has just completed a total refit inside and out to showroom condition. No expense spared. Built by Cheoy Lee, the finest quality construction combined with classic lines and outstanding performance. One of only thirteen 52s built, this is a stunning yacht with some exceptional features including forward cockpit with seating and beautiful teak interior. Luxurious appointments and ambient elegance combined with convenience of huge double stateroom and high and airy dinette. The Lace's narrow beam, light weight, and low profile provides stability and efficiency unique to a boat this size. Her sleek profile and styling, black hull and bright deckhouse make her stand out like a trophy. "Midnight Lace was inspired by the slippery old hulls that were developed during the age of the rumrunner," Fexas says. "In the heyday of Consolidated, Elco, Dawn and others, yards turned out boats that were both elegant and fast - and that was before the days of high-horsepower, lightweight engines."

| Midnight Lace is a mixture of performance and noble tradition. She's a new custom boat with a design from out of the past. She was designed by Tom Fexas, a naval architect who has been convinced for at least the last five years that there will be a place for long, narrow boats in the future. We first saw the plans for this boat in 1975, but it was only because of Tom Fexas' strong commitment to the concept that the boat was finally built and launched. "Midnight Lace was inspired by the slippery old hulls that were developed during the age of the rumrunner," Fexas says. "In the heyday of Consolidated, Elco, Dawn and others, yards turned out boats that were both elegant and fast - and that was before the days of high-horsepower, lightweight engines." The current trend in production boat building has been toward beamy boats. It has been that way for over ten years, and there seems to be no indication of change. The reason why major builders are producing beamy boats is simply that the market demands it. Customers want large interior accommodations. But beamy boats require more power to push through the water. That translates into bigger, more costly engines for planing hulls, and higher fuel consumption at planning speeds. That Midnight Lace looks a bit like a torpedo boat is no accident. The experiences with the light strong hit-and-run PT boats of World War II taught designers much about getting speed out of available horsepower. So, for starters, Lace is light. Fexas built the hull with Airex core material as the matrix and added extra layers of glass reinforcement in all the stress locations. He knew that the beamy production boat, with all its extra structural material and the heavy machinery needed to push it around, could fall easily into a "closed loop" system of power requirements - the more weight, the more power needed, thereby adding more machinery weight... and so on...
