ABOUT THE WELLCRAFT 28 EXPLORER

The Wellcraft 28 Explorer is an all-new, offshore-ready
model built for boaters who want to go farther, stay out
longer, and do it in comfort and style. With a fully
enclosed wheelhouse, a distinctive Z-line silhouette, high
freeboards, and a closed transom, the 28 Explorer is
engineered for true four-season, long-range exploring - not
just a fair-weather day boat.

Performance & Construction:

Built on Wellcraft's advanced stepped hull, developed in
partnership with stepped-hull specialist Navia, and
reinforced with W.I.S.E. (Wellcraft Infujection Structure
Engineering) technology for a lighter, stiffer, and stronger
platform. Paired with the twin Mercury 200hp FourStrokes on
this boat, expect brisk acceleration, a soft, dry ride in
chop, and confident handling at speed - this hull design is
capable of over 50 knots depending on power.

Deck & Layout:

A one-level walkaround deck with oversized handrails,
rubrails, and a side dive door (with integrated boarding
steps) makes moving around the boat - and getting in and out
of the water - easy and secure. This particular boat is
configured in the social Lounge layout, finished in Arctic
upholstery throughout, ideal for entertaining guests or
cruising with the family.

Wheelhouse & Comfort:

The fully enclosed wheelhouse wraps you in panoramic glass,
giving you weather protection without sacrificing visibility
- a genuine command center for long-distance cruising. Add
the Webasto diesel heating system and this boat is ready for
cool mornings and late-season outings most open boats can't
handle.

Loaded with Options:

This particular boat comes extremely well equipped straight
from the factory: Garmin premium electronics, Fusion premium
audio, a bow thruster and electric trim tabs for easy
handling, upgraded Titanium Marine Mat decking, a cockpit
table, extra midship cleats, LED lighting, and full
protective covers.
