Massachusetts-baserade båtföretaget Zurn Yacht Design har offentliggjort nya ritningar för den här läckerbiten –Zurn 38. Det är en fullt modern båt med klassiska linjer och dubbla vattenjetaggregat. Båten håller redan på att byggas vid New England Boatworks.
Den här båten har verkligen det bästa man kan vänta sig av klassiska linjer från en båt i New England design. Eleganta och slanka linjer, en rymlig sittbrunn och ett stabilt skrov.
Zurn/NEB 38 är främst avsedd för fiske och dykning och att ta sig ut på sjön snabbt. Den är försedd med Ultra Jet drives som är kopplade till två Volvo Penta D-6 dieselmotorer med tillsammans 870 hk, vilket ger en toppfart på 40 knop. Som tillval kan båten förses med traditionell ratt eller joystick. Målet är att bygga en båt med en behaglig marschfart på 36 knop.
Skrov och däck byggs med epoxy och vakuuminjicering, vilket ger ett lätt och starkt laminat. Den har ett planande skrov med en moderat hållen V-botten och för stabilitetens skull har båten även Seakeepers nya 3DC batteridrivna system med gyrostabilisator.

ZURN/NEB 38 CUSTOM DIVE BOAT PLANNED LAUNCH NEXT FEBRUARY 2016
Massachusetts based Zurn Yacht Design announces construction of the Zurn designed 38
foot twin water-jet boat. Boat production is already underway at New England Boatworks, a
top tier builder with a history of successful collaborations with Doug Zurn and his team. This
38-foot pleasure yacht is the ultimate adaptation of the iconic New England design, with
sleek lines, low-profile open pilot house, spacious cockpit, and inherently stable hull form.
FAST AND FUN
The Zurn/NEB 38 is conceived for fishing and diving, and to get you there quickly. The Ultra
Jet drives are powered by twin Volvo Penta D-6 Diesel engines (a combined 870 hp for a 40
knot top speed) with a choice of wheel or joystick steering. She will comfortably cruise at 36
knots.
The hull and deck are built with an epoxy resin infused, cored composite construction, for a
light-weight and strong structure. Careful design of the hard-chined, moderate-V planning
hull optimizes hull shape efficiency and ride stability. Assisting the smooth ride is Seakeepers
NEW 3DC battery powered gyrostabilizer, which delivers unprecedented stability
while at anchor diving or trolling for trophy fish.
For maximum vantage point in tight maneuvering, a removable, remote steering station can
be mounted on the pilot house hard-top. The mast-like station provides a sturdy, buckle-in,
ergonomically designed leaning post with yolk-arms that accommodate the water jet joystick
and throttle controls. Additional control is offered by the Side Power bow-thruster.
STATE OF THE ART CONTROL AND MONITORING SYSTEMS
This modern day vessel employs state of the art control and monitoring systems, and
sophisticated electronics for navigation, fish finding and sonar, and optional night vision
security. On-board power is supplied by a substantial DC house battery bank. An inverter
provides 120 VAC power with both AC and DC power outlets located throughout the Pilot
House and cabin. Audio entertainment can be shared between the Cabin, Pilot House, and
Cockpit areas.
Hot and cold water is available at the head and galley sinks, as well as the cockpit washdown
shower, where passengers can rinse off after a warm swim or grouper spear hunt. A
Sealand VacuFlush system and holding tank provide a clean, efficient, and easy means
waste water management.
ALL ABOUT NOISE&VIBRATION CONTROL
A premium feature of the Zurn/NEB 38 is the emphasis on controlling excess noise and
vibration. Main engine exhausts are provided by Marine Exhaust Systems, whose water
injection system and in-line exhaust silencer are proven solutions for quiet exhausts. The
propulsion engines and other important and vibration-prone equipment are supported on
soft elastic mountings for reduced structure borne noise. Machinery space insulation uses a
combination of acoustic foam, mass-barrier layers, and vibration damping treatments in a
carefully designed acoustic package to significantly reduce sound transmission into
passenger areas. Robust double – gasketting of deck hatches assures no acoustic leaks
through deck hatch seals.
LAYOUT AND AMENITIES
The pilot house sports settee and table seating along each side, with swiveling Stidd helm
seats for the pilot and co-pilot to join in the socializing. Large forward windscreens and side
windows provide panoramic viewing for a scenic sunset cocktail and safer navigation in
crowded or adverse conditions.
The open cockpit offers an impressive amount of space for a 38-foot boat, and includes
removable bait wells and fish lockers, as well as storage space for rods, spear guns,
outriggers, and other fishing and diving gear. The transom seat folds up out of the way for
additional room, Both sides of the cockpit and also the aft end of the hard-top are equipped
with rod holders, and can be augmented by a pair of 15-foot removable outriggers. Wide
side decks provide ample passage room to the foredeck and ground tackle.
A 9’ HBI dingy is stored on the Sealift swim platform that mechanically lowers for easy
dinghy launching. Dinghy chocks fold flush to the platform surface when not in use. The
platform is perfect as a staging area for a reef dive, or for an evening dip by underwater
lighting to end a relaxing day.
FINE INTERIORS
Below deck the Zurn/NEB 38 has a simple and elegant open interior as comfortable
quarters for two. Cheery ceilings accent the Block Island influenced cabin and frames the
queen-sized berth with ample drawer storage beneath. Aft of the berth is a head to port, and
to starboard a modest galley, with sink, microwave, small DC fridge, Corian countertop, and
cabinet storage.
