LINE FISHING BOAT 28  

A 28ft old school line fishing boat-trawler with a healthy Iveco 180hp inboard diesel is now for sale, exclusively with DBY Boat Sales.

Located just north of Sydney at beautiful Crowdy head, she is the perfect boat for a bit of east coast trolling, dropping the crab pots or some more serious offshore shelf and bottom fishing. Her open cockpit allows plenty of room to swing a rod, move around with a few friends plus could also easily support a few deck chairs and a bit of additional sun protection overhead if attached to the existing hardtop area for a very capable day cruiser. Hull construction is double diagonal strip plank. A basic setup in the enclosed forward cabin which has a marine loo and portable cooker for coffee's and heating the stew. A stainless-steel full rail with triple life lines from amidships forward to the anchor, ensure safety and confidence on the deck whilst at sea.
