Zurn/NEB 38

Conceived for fishing and diving, Zurn Yacht Design’s Zurn/NEB 38, expected for a February 2016 launch, is sure to grab the attention of boaters looking for a fast and fun pleasure yacht. Twin Volvo Penta D-6 Diesel engines power the ultra jet drives allowing the Zurn/NEB 38, with a choice of wheel or joystick steering, to comfortably cruise at 36 knots.

Boat production is already underway at New England Boatworks for this 38 footer that’s the ultimate adaptation of the iconic New England design with sleek lines, low-profile open pilot house, spacious cockpit, and stable hull form. The hull and deck are built with an epoxy resin-infused, cored composite construction for a lightweight and strong structure. With a hard-chined, moderate V-planing hull, the boat also comes equipped with Seakeeper’s new 3DC battery-powered gyrostabilizer.

Below deck, the Zurn/NEB 38 boasts a simple and elegant quarters for two with a queen-sized berth, a head and a modest galley with a sink, microwave, and small fridge.
