Accomodations
Fly bridge seating for two has a forward facing/ aft facing back rest which allow the driver and a companion to face
forward while underway or look over the cockpit while moored or at the dock. The Fly bridge has a full canopy
engine switch, compass, and portable GPS. Additionally there are a couple of lockers for storing life jackets,
spotlights or other gear.
The cockpit can be the focal point for entertaining, fishing, sun bathing, resting, or you can open the cockpit canopy
for shade or protection from a light rain. There are a couple of lock in rod holders for a little fishing. There is a swim
Platform with a swim ladder for a quick dip.
The Sliding door from cockpit to main salon does not interfere with either the cockpit space or the main cabin area.
The L-convertible settee to port is very comfortable for relaxing and the owners have a companion seat which can
face forward if you need a co-pilot. The main cabin table favors the port side and is large enough for 4 people to
comfortably sit around. There are lots of nooks and crannies and cabinets for gear and equipment. The lower
steering station is to starboard and visibility is excellent. Sliding window in main salon port, starboard and aft for
cross ventilation. Opening panel in windshield and opening deck hatch with screen forward provide additional
ventilation. Down below on Starboard is the galley, with a 2 burner electric/alcohol stove, refrigerator, sink and
counter space with storage lockers. The cutting board can cover the 2 burner stove or sits easily between the sink
and the stove top. a Vee-berth forward has a hanging locker on the port side. The head is below on the Port side
with a pull out shower head and manual head opening port and stainless sink.Teak and holly sole with vinyl
headliner, teak battens and teak cabinetry.
There's a lot of stuff on this 28' yacht.
Also check out the cockpit canopy cover, cockpit steps, rod holder brackets, and winter cover.

History of Down East Boats by Hal Oaks
The Downeast lobster boat really came into being with the introduction of the Make and Break engines and the
transition from sail and oar to power at the turn of the Century. Maine boat builders took note of the early wooden
power boats incorporating the higher powered motor car gasoline engines as seen in Motor Boat Magazine and
other periodicals at the end of WWI. Will Frost of Jonesport, Maine in the 1920's with his designs for working motor
boats may be more responsible than any other designer for the present day lobster boat. The Downeast design
came to incorporate a fine bow entry, generous deadrise amidships, and then a flattening out toward the stern,
having a full length keel and large amount of cockpit or deck space. Today, the single engine Downeast Lobster boat
is recognized as an efficient and able design.
Modern Downeast boats are typically designed with hulls that are semi-displacement, or "semi-planing." This hull
type is capable of developing a moderate amount of hydrodynamic lift due to it's underwater shape, however, most
of the boat's weight is still supported through buoyancy with typical power applications. When at rest, the vessel's
weight is supported by buoyancy equal to the vessel's weight. At low speeds, most hulls act as displacement hulls
where buoyancy is the predominant supporting force. As speed increases, there is an increase in hydrodynamic lift,
buoyant support will decrease as the hull is lifted out of the water. At the same time the volume of water that the
vessel displaced is decreased. When lift is the predominant upward force, the hull is considered to be planing.
Downeast type hulls make use of this planing or semi-planing effect with the shape of their hulls where a flatter
section with low dead rise is incorporated in the after section of the hull providing a means to transition from
displacement speed to semi-displacement or semi-planing speeds. Speed is now a function of power to weight
ratios. Shape of hull, lifting rails, angle of drive train force, and trim tabs will determine vessel longitudinal angle to
the water and its ability to lift and increase speed.
In the past few decades the trend has been to build boats with more beam than the traditional 3-1 length to beam
ratio. A wider flatter section aft of amidships will provide additional buoyancy for the weight of larger engines and
payload. At all speeds the fine entry and generous dead rise forward of amidships can provide a sea kindly ride by
reducing pounding in most sea conditions. The long un-ballasted keel provides a steadying effect in a seaway in
addition to protecting the running gear when grounded. Some designs incorporate a ballasted keel where a section
of the keel is compartmentalized and allowed to flood (water ballast) to provide additional stability with a lower center
of gravity. This is especially useful in lower speed vessels that are kept offshore in heavier weather that benefit from
an increased righting moment.
Downeast hull types are typically described as being either "built down" or "skeg built." (the keel being referred to as
the skeg) In the built down type, the shape of the hull forms a graceful reverse curve with considerable dead rise
forward and greatly reduced moving aft. The interior of the hull amidships is full and deep allowing the engine to be
placed lower in the bilge with a more horizontal drive line. With skeg built boats, the hull is shallower amidships with
a flatter bottom and a vertical keel at near right angles to the hull fully aft.This hull shape is capable of higher speeds
from semi-displacement to planing with an increase in power. Typically the bow is elevated slightly and a softer ride
is provided. In following seas which can be the most difficult to steer in, the long keel will track well and the large
rudder will provide plenty of grip on the slip stream in either type.
Other variants of the Downeast hull are found in the chine (the transition point from the top of the deadrise to hull
side.) Deadrise is the angle of the hull at various points to vertical. The steeper the dead rise angle, the softer the
ride. The chine in most traditional boats are softened or rounded. This make a very smooth and pleasing looking
transition at the waterline. These boats typically have a slower and more comfortable roll moment or roll. Some
boats have been designed with a hard chine or sharp angle where the hull side transitions to the underbody. This
creates extra buoyancy and has the effect of producing less roll under way. The roll moment (roll period) is a little
quicker in a hard chine boat but works very well in the Downeast design such as the Wesmac line of boats. The
chine can also be used to create extra lift from amidships aft, lifting the hull slightly and allowing for greater speed
with the same amount of power. Spray rails applied forward and then running aft down the slip stream, under the
water line to the stern will produce the same desired effect.
Downeast boats are typically built with a single engine, gas or diesel inboard, and both have their benefits. A few
Downeast boats have been fitted with twin engines but that is rare except for the modern high speed twins such as
the Little Harbor. The major benefits of a single engine boat are the full length keel with center line drive and good
protection of the prop and rudder in addition to the reduced expense of upkeep and efficiency with single engine
operation . Cruise speeds range from displacement speed with low power to well over 20 knots cruise and higher
depending on weight to power ratios. The 30' Duffy configured to race, reached a top speed of 70 mph.
Maneuvering a Downeast boat in tight quarters and docking takes a bit of practice like any other single engine boat.
With a starboard helm, the propeller is typically left hand turning in forward which will pull the stern to the right in
reverse (when not making way.) This is known as prop walk.
This is a general introduction to most of the Downeast Boat designers and builders. We encourage the correction,
enhancement and addition to this information on any Downeast design. Our goal is to make this an accurate source
of information on Downeast lobster boats and yachts.
