                                              Downeast boats

                                              Sometimes called lobsters boats or lobster yachts, Downeast boats have a traditional design that has been adapted for both recreational and commercial use. Signature features include a hard top extended over a cockpit, a full cabin, and a V-berth bow. Lengths of these boats can vary between 18 to 70 feet.

                                              What are downeast boats?

                                              Larger vessels called downeast boats are usually utilized for activities like overnight cruising and day cruising. Usually averaging at 37 feet, vessels of these kinds can come as big as 66 feet and as small as 22 feet in length. Several boat manufacturers produce these vessels, using hull types such as deep vee, modified vee, semi-displacement, planing and other. A total of 152 brand-new boats and 489 used boats are among the 641 downeast boats that are now available on Boat Trader, which features listings from both professional dealerships and private sellers countrywide.

                                              What are the best downeast boats?

                                              Some of the most widely-known manufacturers of downeast boats at present include: Sabre, Back Cove, MJM, Hinckley and Mainship. Downeast boats models are produced with inboard, outboard, outboard-4S, inboard/outboard and other propulsion systems, available in diesel, gas and other fuel systems. The top two downeast boats brands on Boat Trader over the previous 30 days were Back Cove, Grand Banks, Hinckley, Mainship and Sabre.

                                              How much do downeast boats cost?

                                              Prices for downeast boats on Boat Trader range from a reasonable $25,280 at the lower-cost segment to $4,250,000 for the most luxury model variety. Models with the greatest power can handle motors up to a blazing 2,224 horsepower, while the more modest utility models may have as low as 110 horsepower engines on them (although the average power size is 600 HP).
