COASTER 49ft motorboat
The Coaster is a long range cruising boat able to fulfil category B of the R.C.D.
Tough steel construction, wide side decks and low seaworthy profile all contribute to her long distance seagoing ability.
Steelwork is of heavier build than many vessels of this size. Protection and safety are a priority when undertaking adventurous voyages and steel has the strength and resilience for hard knocks! The hull form is of a hardchine type and will operate efficiently at displacement speeds of up to 8.5 knots. Fitting out will be simpler than many other motorboat designs.
The Coaster has a low enough air draft to cruise the vast majority of Continental waterways.
