                                                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.
