Brokerage: Mochi Craft Dolphin 44

The Mochi Craft Dolphin 44 was an Italian take on Down East-style boats.

Mochi Craft took on a big challenge when it reimagined an American tradition: the lobster boat. It did so with style, creating a yacht with ­radius curves, flowing lines and eye-catching hull colors.

Our test 44, the smallest of five Mochi models from 44 to 74 feet in length, had twin 575 hp Volvo Penta diesels.

There were two staterooms, including an amidships master, and two heads.
