After many requests for a
bigger ECOnomy cruiser here she is. For dimensions see the specifications.
The lay out speaks for it self. This boat is a perfect boat for the whole
family. The boat is designed for coastal cruising. Construction and
design. The ECO 7 is a multi chine design. Like all our designs the boat is a
(ply-) wood/epoxy /glass construction. The headroom in the
hulls is 1.92 till 1.82m where it counts. The seat height around the table
is at least 98 cm. Big storage areas (inside and outside) makes the boat a
perfect boat for extended vacations. The plans will show two sail plans. The
first a conventional fractional rig. The second our preferred
wishbone gaff rig. Engine choices, two outboard engines , each with about
5 HP and later a diesel electric drive with solar panel back up and/or trailing
generator.
