Previous site details about the Offshore 45 development:

  • Build Start 2003.
  • This is a new design with its heritage closely connected to our commercial boats.
  • Characteristics: comfort, seaworthiness, endurance, and predictability.
  • Power is by a single 225 hp diesel to give a maximum speed of 9 knots and a range of 3200 n.m. at 6.5 knots.
  • The standard cabin styling is the `trawler' format. For something a little different the optional `tug' style wheelhouse (vertical front) is available.
  • Another option we are examining is the hull construction in steel but to maintain favorable stability and weight, the superstructure would be of aluminum.
