The Nelson Zimmer Palm Beach 22' is a refined American classic, admired for its clean lines, elegant proportions, and smooth offshore performance. Designed for both leisure cruising and sport use, this model reflects the timeless craftsmanship and understated luxury associated with mid-century American wooden boats. This custom-made scale model is handcrafted upon request, using premium Western Red Cedar, Teak, Mahogany, and carefully selected exotic woods. Constructed following the traditional plank-on-frame technique, the model faithfully captures the original hull form, deck layout, and distinctive styling details. Each project requires approximately 4-5 months of meticulous craftsmanship. Every curve and structural element is recreated with precision. Throughout the build, you will receive photo updates at each key production stage for review and approval: - Hull construction and planking - Deck detailing, cockpit layout, and structures - Final painting, varnishing, and finishing touches Minor adjustments can be discussed during production to ensure the final model meets your expectations. Once completed and approved, the model will be securely packed in a custom wooden crate with reinforced protection, ensuring safe international delivery. Available as a custom-made project only.

The Palm Beach 22' is associated with Nelson Zimmer, an American designer known for his well-proportioned wooden runabouts of the mid-20th century. His designs emphasized balance, restraint, and usability, appealing to owners who valued clarity of form over ornamentation. The Palm Beach series gained popularity for its versatility and refined appearance, particularly in post-war coastal and inland leisure boating. The 22-foot configuration offered a practical balance of size, comfort, and performance. Original examples are now rare, and modern replicas preserve the character of the design while incorporating updated construction techniques and customization options.
