Kadey-Krogen 58 EB

Kadey-Krogen has done a masterful job positioning itself as one of the top long-range trawler builders in the world.

They have done so by turning out boats with excellent fuel efficiency, incredibly stable rides, and a level of onboard comfort that begs owners to stay aboard for extended ocean-going treks. But, of course, those qualities all translate well to lake boating, where a boat like the 58 EB effectively becomes a home away from home.

The 58 EB comes with either a single- or twin- engine package. If the single engine is chosen, it’s a 325-hp John Deere. If the owner opts for twins it will be 160-hp John Deeres. Regardless of the engine package, the powerplants are housed in a spacious engine room designed to ensure that an owner-operator can comfortably and effectively carry out her maintenance duties.

Down below, the boat comes with either a two- or three-stateroom layout, both of which have a full-beam amidships primary ensuite. That primary stateroom has a king-size berth that is very comfortable, as well as extra stowage throughout to make sure the owner has enough clothes and other comforts to accompany her on the long journeys this boat was designed for.

Up top, the Kadey-Krogen has a large flybridge that acts as an excellent place to pilot the boat and also functions as a main entertainment space. The 58 EB was conceived of as a world-girdler. As such, her windows are extra thick and strong at 12 millimeters. She also has wing stations for help with docking and navigating in places like the Pacific Northwest where flotsam and jetsam abound. Her hull was designed for fuel efficiency and stability, both underway and on the hook. Her range at 8 knots is 2,600 nautical miles — enough to go from Seattle to Anchorage, Alaska, without refueling.
