Exterior
The Longreach Bluewater hull features a reverse bow to extend the waterline out as far as possible to maximise efficiency, while also providing a wave piercing affect for a smooth ride at speed. The chines at the waterline ensure a dry boat, while under the waterline the hull features two docking keels to enable safe beaching while also protecting the running gear. The hull is a full displacement hull but designed to motor at cruise speeds of 12 knots, or top speeds of around 25 knots. The 58 comes standard with long range tanks totalling up to 5,600 litres of diesel providing more than 4,000 nautical miles range at 8 knots, or an impressive 2,000 nautical mile range at 12 knots.
Helm & Flybridge
The flybridge is super social, with a massive lounging area, dining table, wet bar with fridge / freezer included. It has a panoramic view will can be completely enclosed with high quality clears, or if you prefer, glass windows.
While the helm has twin seats with full support, a full suite of electronics at your fingertips and the wheel and throttle controls from the centre allowing you to stand when berthing. Either side of the helm seats are more lounging seats – people will just gravitate to these areas, plus forward steps to the front deck for easy access to the bow.
Spacious Liveable Areas
The Saloon features a chef’s sized galley with upright double door fridge, dish-washer, stove & microwave convection oven. A breakfast bar opens out into the cockpit which enjoys a large dining area under full shade protection and BBQ.
