8 Meter Allweather Small Passagemaker.

SOLD April, 2016

The 1992 Allweather 26 Trawler, hull #27, moored at a dock with a large hotel behind

A nimble passage maker: 1992 Allweather 26 Trawler.

The 8 meter Allweather is one of the most seaworthy and efficient boats around. Designed around a classic double ended fjord boat hull, this boat uses 0.25 to 0.5 gallons of fuel per hour and has a range of well over 2000 miles on a tank of fuel. It is powered by a Kubota lightly marinized power plant with waterjacketed exhaust manifold. She has a closed loop cooling system implementing a keel cooler and dry stack for reliability.

This boat has excellent equipment on board including a fully networked chart plotter, VHF/DSC and remote controlled autopilot. Garmin's GMR40 provides radar overlays even in the worst of weather. This boat has dual pilot house wheel and aft tiller control stations. Both have separated throttle and shift and the rear tiller allows for exceptional maneuverability.

You will be warm all year with Espar Diesel Heat and a engine heat exchanger.

The full displacement hull has a steel shoe fore to aft, protecting the hull and prop from damage. This boat is of sturdy handlaid fiberglass construction and can be beached safely. It also can be trailered with its 8 foot beam. It comes with a Zodiac c240 dinghy.

This is one of the last boats designed and built, and one of the nicest by Homer Hughes' Allweather boats in Ferndale Washington. It is a rare late model hull #27 of 31 built and one of the most desirable layouts. This boat is truly unique and is about as reliable and safe as marine transportation can get.
