The Dyer 29 Soft Top is so quiet that a social conversation and or a picnic can be enjoyed underway. The boat is easily driven, level-riding and non-pounding with a 200 horsepower Volvo turbo-diesel that slices through waves at 17 knots cruising speed. It averages 2.5 to 4 gallons per hour over a season's use on the Maine coast. The 29 has been proven durable and seaworthy by more than 300 owners and fishing captains. The raised bridgedeck over the engine offers great visibility from the wheel and, without an engine box, there's space to seat four around a table inside the enclosed top. Dyer 29's versatile 4-in-1 design maximizes the joys of motorboating. With soft top up and side panels in place, it's a three-season cabin cruiser. Remove side panels for an airy, Bimini- topped ride on the Intracoastal. The sailboat cabin is perfect for a cruising couple with its twin V-berth cabin, galley and enclosed head. Guests may sleep aft on the optional screened-in porch.
