BRENDA KAY — SOLD

29′ cold-molded lobster boat  — 2010 —  SOLD

BRENDA KAY is a cold-molded reproduction of a 1950’s Beals Island lobster boat. The original boat, re-named DIANA after a 2001 restoration here at Hylan & Brown, was designed and built by Alvin Beal in 1952.  In 2009 a customer from Virginia, having admired DIANA, commissioned a reproduction. To the eye BRENDA KAY is a perfectly accurate copy of the original, belying the modernization of her construction and equipment. Her hull–with 8” of additional beam for space and stability–is cold molded, and she is powered by a 110hp Yanmar diesel engine turning an Evolution Marine Shaft System.

BRENDA KAY won First Place for Professionally Built Powerboat at the 2010 WoodenBoat Show in Mystic CT. Official announcement in Sept/Oct issue of WoodenBoat magazine.

BRENDA KAY is perfectly suited to short cruises with her simple yet comfortable accommodations, and her cockpit provides ample room for guests on day trips. At speeds up to 16 knots she cruises with comfort, safety and traditional style.

LOA – 28’8”
Beam – 8’9”
Draft – 2’3”
Power – 110hp Yanmar with Evolution Marine Shaft System
