Do You Love Trawler & Explorer Yachts? Then This Boat Is For You!

For people who love trawler yachts, their passion has often been forged from the sight of these capable boats ploughing through some big seas miles away from land.

And that's part of the appeal when it comes to trawler yachts; you don't have to stay in the marina if you do not want to.

So when I saw a Kadey Krogen 58 trawler yacht, I just knew that I had to make a video about this extremely capable, long-range explorer yacht.

I also knew that many of you, my viewers and subscribers, would perhaps also like this ocean crossing masterpiece.

This bluewater cruiser can be easily piloted and handled by two people without the need for additional crew.

The Krogen 58 has a large flybridge that is specially designed for entertaining and functionality.

The 58 also has a decent size boat deck and, of course, that Portuguese
bridge.

But what do you think of her?

Greetings from Trinidad and Tobago West Indies.Here we welcome yachties from all over the world.

My kind of boat. Open waters or river it just fits. Floor plan in good. The wheel house I really liked that. I could see me in that boat.

Amazing ship, you have a great show of this ship again. Well done mate.

[cryptocop]

Love your videos mate, especially the Nordavn. You produce some of the best detailed trawler videos on youtube. I too spent time in the Navy, 8 years active duty. I was stationed aboard the USS George Washington CVN-73, I was an ABE, Green Shirt, launched planes off of Cat 1, We were at the 50th D-Day ( June 1994) Anniversary and traveled from Portsmouth to Normandy with the Queen on her ship /yacht following. We had President Clinton and First Lady Hillary Clinton aboard our ship. Fair Winds and Following Seas Shipmate, stay safe and keep making the great videos.

Love these Kadys! I’m looking for one of their early 80’s whale backs at 42’ - 46’ for budgetary purposes - but I’ll still be at sea! A single engine with a wing is my desired setup.

Thanks for this video. Subscribed👍🏻She's ticking almost all boxes. Missing the engine room tour and more about technical things

[careylogan]

Your video peaked my interest and I went to their web page. Very impressed! thx for the great video. I luv trawlers especially the 45' to 60' range. I decided to subscribe for a while based on this video presentation

I am more of a Cheoy Lee, Hatteras LRC, Selene type of trawlerman. I have owned a Grand Banks 42 Classic, a fine coastal and inland trawler. Made passages on PAE's Nordhavn Trawlers and Mason sailing vessels. My current vessel is a sturdy Cheoy Lee 34 Trawler with reverse rake pilothouse and large paravane stabilizers. Not a circumnavigator but extraordinarily capable for its size, like a 36 or 40 Willard Marine Trawler.

So many great trawler yachts offered. Great Northern, Selene, Fleming, Nordhavn, Bering, Van der Valk, Beneteau, Grand Harbor, Evadne Yachts, Hardy, Jay Benford, North Pacific, Sea Horse, Helmsman, Adagio, Independent Shipright, Jefferson, Whitaker, Grand Banks, North Sea, Ocea, and maybe my favorite Van der Vliet.

Great video as always! Thanks for taking my suggestion on profiling the Kadey Krogen 58EB! It's my dream boat that can go anywhere in the world!

I have always loved the look of a trawler and it's endurance. If I am ever in the position to buy a yacht it will probably be a trawler or expedition style yacht. If not a troller that a refit from a former military frigate or strip down Corvette. As I said in your previous video with Lone Ranger, after working on the teak decks in the Port of Miami in the '90s, that would be something I would love to own. I would be able to go wherever I wanted to on the seas.

[alibabaneue-welt]

Super Vid my Friend👍👍👍 this kind of trawlers are the best for me and i think also for the most sea loving guys . I`m sure many follower from your canal wana see more from this stunning trawlers around 50feet, or maybe some diesel ducks . Anyway you do a great job for us, keep on going, Thanks a lot !!!

Trawler yachts are a darn sight more comfortable than the cruiser I sailed on back in my Navy days. (:

[susanking]

nordic tugs are my suggestion which we have. I really like the flexibility of kady 's designs below deck with options for more staterooms. Trawlers are solid boats which will keep you safe, but my complaint is the design and decor of the staterooms needs to be stepped up to more luxury feel rather than being all the same.I often prefer the vip stateroom to the larger bow master.

[wowmachineradio]

That new Bering 77 Explorer is amazing! Videos of the Veronika pre-delivery are on YT, you should do a follow up with the new owners.

This 58 is the Extended Bridge version, with the flying bridge right on top of the pilot house. This gives room in the pilot house for a day head and pilot's bunk. I don't like it as much as the 'traditional design of the 52. I have seen 58s built as larger 52s with the flying bridge in the normal position at the rear of the pilot house and although you lose space on the flying bridge, the look is much more appealing....with the whole pilot house exposed, it looks more like a trawler. The pilot house is stunning, and you can have the option of a stairway from inside the pilot house up to the flybridge. I agree with other comments that the master stateroom is very simple, refined, but simple, and looks quite plain when compared to more contemporary yachts. What you get with a KK is a refined spacious home on the seas.... and the ability to cross any ocean. It's my dream boat. I love the idea of pootling along at 5-7 knots, no hurry, exploring the oceans of the world....cruising from California to Hawaii...Bermuda to the Bahamas...no need to refuel....incredible!! I have seen the trawler yachts of the competition having to turn back when the sea became lumpy because the yacht was semi-displacement and just couldn't cope with the chop of blue water cruising. When my lottery win comes in, I'm flying to Pearce, Florida to KKs HQ to put in my order! : D

Hi! I have a boat designed by Vripack, STENTOR 1800. There are only 4 built and I love it. It is ocean A-class with a range of 3000nm. Two caterpillars 185hp each makes the average speed to 7.5 knots.

The John Deere engine is a deal breaker.
