It is the ideal companion for those who love adrenaline but do not want to give up tranquility, approved to comfortably accommodate:
• 9 people in Category C

Intelligent Layout and On-Board Comfort The Wellcraft 28 Explorer surprises with its use of space, offering solutions worthy of larger boats:
• The Convivial Bow: The front area is much more than just a passageway. You will find a cozy open-air lounge with a comfortable sofa, a large sundeck and a central table. It is the perfect place for lunches with friends, aperitifs at sunset or simply to relax while at anchor.
• Versatile Aft Area: A large aft sundeck invites you to relax, but hides a secret: below is a comfortable cabin with two beds, perfect for weekends out of town or afternoon naps.
• Services: Maximum practicality thanks to the marine toilet located in the bow cabinet, ensuring privacy and comfort for all guests.
ENGINES AND ON-BOARD INSTRUMENTATION:
At sea, performance is ensured by a powerful Mercury XL V6 FourStroke dual outboard engine with 200 horsepower each, enhanced by a refined white grille. The helm station, equipped with a practical smartphone holder with integrated wireless charging, is the technological heart of the boat: here the large Garmin GPSMAP 1523 ultra-wide display stands out, which works in perfect synergy with the Garmin GT15M-IH transducer to offer precise readings while sailing. Maneuvers in port are simple and stress-free thanks to the bow thruster powered by a dedicated battery. Anchor management is also optimized to the maximum, relying on a stainless steel roller and an electric windlass that can be managed remotely with remote control, which moves a 7.5 kg "Claw" type steel anchor equipped with 10 meters of chain and 25 meters of rope. The electrical system is sized to ensure excellent autonomy of services, including a 12V and 95Ah main battery bank, two additional SPB service batteries and the provision for the dock socket with 230V connection easily accessible in the cabin. The boat is also sold with a complete mooring kit, which includes four lines, six fenders and as many Wellcraft-branded protective socks.
EXTERIOR EQUIPMENT AND DECK COMFORT:
On board, the aft cockpit is presented in the exclusive and welcoming "Sleeper" layout, entirely finished with upholstery in the "Desert" shade. This set-up transforms the area into an outdoor lounge, equipped with a large sun cushion with adjustable backrest and a mattress specially designed for the aft bed. For maximum practicality during days at sea, a discreet waste bin has been integrated under the helm seat (leaning post) and there is an additional stern door on the starboard side that greatly facilitates going to sea or returning on board. The attention to detail continues towards the bow, where the same "Desert" upholstery covers the pilot's seats and the entire forward cockpit. This area is designed for maximum relaxation: in fact, we find a folding table complete with an additional cushion to create an additional sunbathing area and a comfortable icebox to keep drinks cool. The atmosphere is made even more pleasant in the evening hours by a sophisticated LED courtesy light system. Supporting outdoor living is a well-sized water system, with a 50-litre fresh water tank feeding a shower at the stern and a folding tap in the outdoor wetbar, both cold water. An additional folding tap serves the interior of the cabin.
INTERIORS AND SLEEPING AREA:
Below deck, the cabin welcomes guests with comfort mattresses that are always coordinated in the "Desert" shade and with a careful flooring specific for boating (Marine mat). The organization of the volumes is intelligently managed through a "Smart storage system" that optimizes on-board storage. The environment is made even more functional by the presence of a mirror and modern USB sockets in A and C format for charging electronic devices. Finally, the bathroom offers a considerable degree of comfort: the standard chemical toilet has in fact been replaced with a modern electric toilet, served by a 54-liter black water tank. To complete the toilets there is a sink equipped with a practical cover which, if necessary, can be transformed into a useful additional support surface.
