Dromeas D28 SUV – Exterior Design

Sharp, military-inspired lines. From the hull to the closed bridge, the boat has an appearance that does not conceal its performance characteristics. A double stepped hull almost accompanies the foredeck, and just above, on deck, are a bow sundeck and two seats. Handrails accompany the guests from stern to bow along the bulwarks, providing support and safety while underway.

Foredeck

At the stern, a double sofa accommodates the cockpit, and behind it, depending on the configuration, a rollbar, or directly the outboard engine. Amidships, on the other hand, is the enclosed helm station, with integrated steering and ample seating space for all, a solution adopted to maximize comfort in adverse marine conditions, but also for overall safety. Among the many configuration options, an external kitchen cabinet is available.

Interior

Just on the bridge, sheltered from any rain or weather of any kind, four seats divide the space. A double aft sofa converts into an extra berth, and a pair of seats facing the helm station. To the left, is access to the sleeping zone below deck. A cabin designed to maximize space offers the possibility of extending the exits by providing a double bed and a separate toilet.
