                                            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 endeavors like overnight cruising and day cruising. Vessels of this kind can span in size, with the smallest current boat listed at 21 feet in length, to the longest vessel measuring 66 feet, and an average length of 37 feet.
