Fisherman 28

Designed by Paolo Lodigiani and Matteo Costa

A walkaround that sets out to combine the speed and stability wanted for deep sea fishing with the space wanted for a day out. The V hull carries about 20 degrees of deadrise at the transom and the weight is kept down, so she will reach around 30 knots behind a 200 hp outboard at a running trim of about 4 degrees. For the other use there is a 2 m sun deck forward and a dinette aft with a two-burner hob, a sink and a table. Light enough and narrow enough to trail easily.

An 8.34 m walkaround for offshore fishing, drawn to be fast and steady with the deck space a family day out wants as well. Deep V in marine plywood.
