LOMOcean Design is a naval architecture and yacht design company based in Auckland, New Zealand.
LOMOcean Design, previously known as Craig Loomes Design Group ltd., was incorporated in 1993, but has some designs that date back to 1986.
The company designs custom, one off boats, and the boats designed range between 10 metres in length, such as the Police Strike Craft, to vessels as big as 148 metres in length such as the Moonset trimaran super yacht. The boats use advanced composite materials, such as carbon fibre and kevlar, as well as aluminium and other such materials. The company has become known for designing a range of wave-piercing catamarans and trimarans, most notably, Earthrace, and Tûranor PlanetSolar. Other than the wave-piercing designs, the company has also designed mono hull boats as well as power catamarans. The boats include fire fighting boats, global circumnavigating boats, pleasure yachts, coastguard boats and research vessels.
The Moonset wave-piercing trimaran is a concept boat and has not yet been built. This 148 metre concept design has been based on the design of Earthrace, the round-the-world record holder for a power boat. Moonset uses the hull form of Earthrace, and can still be used as a luxury yacht. The boat does this by using a similar wave-piercing trimaran hull form as Earthrace (Ady Gil). A wave-piercing hull is when a boat pushes through a wave instead of over it by slightly submerging the boat. The design has a three level owner's suite, a private owners lounge and enough rooms for 28 guests. The boat can also potentially have art galleries, libraries,conference spaces, private lounges, bar facilities, helicopter facilities and fold-out balconies. The company's website says that the boat is "Capable at crossing the Atlantic at 40 knots without a spill from your wine glass"
