Miles To Add 36-Foot Doug Wright Catamaran Paintjob To Resume

Thanks to a South American customer, Stephen Miles will move one brand closer to his goal of painting a model from every major high-performance powerboat builder. The client, who prefers to keep his name out of the media, has tasked Stephen Miles Design of Owensboro, Ky., to create and apply a paintjob for his new 36-foot Doug Wright pleasure catamaran.

Soon Stephen Miles will be able to cross another “to-paint” go-fast powerboat brand off his list.

The first Doug Wright cat to be painted by Miles, the 36-footer should arrive at his shop within the next two weeks.

“It will come to SMD for paint first,” he revealed. “Then it will go to New York to be rigged by Mike Demeno of Speedmaster Marine on Long Island. The upholstery work will be handled by SL Custom Design.”

“The client sought me out,” he added. “He’s been following my work for quite a while.”

To that end, the buyer learned more about Miles through the painter’s Instagram account. That led him to watch the “In The Lead With Stephen Miles” documentary video produced by Scrapyard Media and Speedonthewater.com in 2023 as part of his research.

“I decided to try out what I heard was the best in the business,” the client explained. “When I got the sketches I understood, and we worked to create a design that is unique.

“It is rare to see a ‘discreet design’ that is still powerful,” he added. “It’s not the typical over-blasted color palette with a million stripes and paint everywhere.”
