2016 Draco 27 RS

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the wide walkthrough and deep, secure freeboard make moving fore and aft feel natural, even with kids or guests who are new to boating. Storage is smartly hidden under nearly every cushion, so beach gear, lines, and fenders disappear out of sight yet stay within easy reach. The driver’s helm is laid out so you can run seated or standing, with excellent sightlines through the windscreen. At anchor, the aft cockpit quickly transforms from underway seating to a relaxed lounge, and the swim platform invites you to linger in the water. Subtle details—solid hardware, tight stitching, and clean joinery—reveal the kind of build quality you usually only notice after a long day on the water.

This size and style is ideal for local waters that can shift from glassy calm to choppy in a single tide cycle. The deep, secure cockpit and flared bow help keep spray down when afternoon breezes kick up, while the dual-console layout gives crew a protected place to tuck in behind the windscreen during a brisk run. Shallow-draft capability lets you nose into coves, explore rocky shorelines, or slide up to a beach without stress. With plenty of open cockpit space and an easy step to the swim platform, it’s just as comfortable for a quick harbor hop as it is for a full day of cruising, picnicking, and swimming close to home.
