 Trawler 28 Our Trawler 28 is a sturdy offshore trawler with a straight inboard diesel. The hull is a typical displacement hull, trawler type. This means a relatively wide beam for her length. Her optional mast with steadying sail will ease the motion in a beam or following sea. Rigged with a jib, it enables her to reach a downwind port in the event of engine trouble. The boom can be used as a dinghy hoist with the tender stowed on the roof during long passages. This plan has been built around the world in countries such as Australia and Turkey, where there is a small fleet! 1360 SW Old Dixie hwy #103 Vero beach FL, US 32962 DESIGN SPECS Company: bateau.com Designer: Jacques Mertens Year of Design: 2004 LOA: 28' 2" (8.60 m) Beam: 10' (3.05 m) Draft: 34" (86 cm) Displacement: 7500/9750 lbs (3400/4400 kg) Propulsion: inboard diesel Skill Level to Build: some experience required Wood: Yes Fiberglass: Yes Metal: No Other Materials: epoxy, optional foam core version Available as (kit, complete plans, etc.): CNC cut ply kit, plans Cost: Plans $325 Other Categories:  Powerboats, offshore Powerboats (other) Trawlers |
