It's unbelievable that our PHANTOM is only 27' long. Bold European styling gives her the look of a 40 footer. What's even more unbelievable is that the PHANTOM can be legally trailered anywhere! Say goodbye forever to expensive, inconvenient moorings and slip rental fees. You can build and moor this rakish beauty in your own backyard! Your cruising waters are limited only by the highways that will carry you and your family to your favorite launching ramp.
The PHANTOM is more than just another tag-along boat; this is a real yacht! Just look at these big boat features: Full length soft riding, dry running, deep vee hull... I/0 or vee drive inboard power for high speeds... Dual control stations with a roomy flying bridge... Enclosed toilet room with shower... Spacious dinette seats 4... Fully equipped galley... Comfortable settee...Sleeping for 4 or 5 adults (or more if some are kids). Big self-bailing flush decked cockpit...Full headroom...Extensive fuel and water capacities....Storage space equal to larger boats. Truly the ultimate trailerable cruiser!
You can build your own PHANTOM for far less money and effort than you might imagine. The comprehensive plans with procedural instructions show you how. Our Full Size Patterns or Frame Kit minimize errors and speed construction. Sheet plywood planking throughout is not only simple and inexpensive, but makes for an incredibly light, but sturdy vessel capable of taking anything that can be expected of a boat this size. So if you've been wondering how to beat the high costs of bigger boats with accompanying high mooring and maintenance costs, take a second look at our trailerable PHANTOM cruiser.
