                                        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. Several boat builders produce these vessels, using hull types such as deep vee, modified vee, semi-displacement, planing and other. Boat Trader currently has 645 downeast boats for sale, including 152 new vessels and 493 used boats, listed by individual owners and professional boat dealers nationwide.

                                        What are the best downeast boats?

                                        Sabre, Back Cove, MJM, Hinckley and Mainship are some of the best-known designers of downeast boats at the moment. Downeast boats models are constructed with inboard, outboard, outboard-4S, inboard/outboard and other propulsion systems, available in diesel, gas and other fuel systems.
