28 Explorer

The Wellcraft 28 Explorer is a rugged and versatile offshore boat designed for long-distance cruising, family adventures and all-season boating. Featuring a fully enclosed pilothouse, high freeboards and an explorer-inspired design, it delivers safety, comfort and performance in all conditions.

A true offshore explorer

Built for offshore navigation, the 28 Explorer stands out with:

• a protected pilothouse with panoramic glazing,
• a full walkaround deck,
• oversized handrails and side boarding door,
• a seaworthy hull engineered for rough conditions.

Thanks to W.I.S.E. (Wellcraft Infusion Structure Engineering) technology, the structure is lighter, stronger and quieter, improving efficiency, stability and onboard comfort.

Each configuration is designed to adapt to both leisure cruising and offshore adventures.
