Transpacific Marine: Pilothouse Trawler: Eagle 53   


The Eagle 53 is the latest and presently the largest Eagle Cruiser. The interior has two optional layouts: Two staterooms with bathrooms and a small office or laundry on the port side or alternatively with an owner's stateroom and two guest cabins. The Eagle 53 is fitted with twin 230 hp Electronic QSB 5.9m Cummins diesels as standard providing a cruising speed of 10 knots and a range of about 700 miles. Optional larger engines for a top speed of up to 21 knots can be installed. An 8 KW gen set is standard. The Eagle 53 achieves the perfect balance of a clean, modern sleek design with a traditional pilothouse line. The superior performance and directional stability are enhanced by the keel depth and unique hull properties. Coupled with the size and weight of the boat, the ride is smooth and efficient at any speed. The trawler look is evident in the covered side decks, completely covered aft deck, large Portuguese bridge, tumblehome transom and spacious flying bridge. The pilothouse and flybridge, both provide exceptional views and comfortable seating for skipper and crew. The accommodation puts your comfort first, and is made possible with easy passageways throughout the yacht, comfortable berths, a galley designed for real cooking, and abundant storage.
