Built differently.
Remembered properly.

This reconstruction brings the complete surviving M2 record together: the finished 45 and 60, the 21 Sport Cat, factory construction, original brochures, and later design studies.

The 2008 homepage described a manufacturer focused on Sport Cats and Motor Yachts, combining high-end finishes with hand-laid composite construction. The surviving archive documents models 21, 45, and 60 in detail, with additional studies for the 58, 63, and 87.
