Recently featured in the June '26 issue of Soundings magazine, the legendary Dyer 29 has been in production since 1955 and combines the great ride and seakeeping ability of a New England fishing vessel with comfort, style, and modern amenities, making it a head turning classic cruiser. Now is your opportunity to own hull #326, a later model version that has been loved by one owner since new and kept in excellent condition. She has been boat lift kept and is turnkey ready for adventure.
Perfect for family day cruising, fishing, or just touring the local creeks in style, this Dyer has the reliable and fully serviced 300hp Yanmar diesel with only 555 easy hours and consistent professional care. The custom hardtop, with full enclosure and aft screens, protects you from the elements and extends the boating season. She was ordered with most of the options offered by the builder including Flag Blue hull, teak windshield, teak swim platform, varnished interior, and much more.
This elegant Downeast cruiser has accommodations for two in the cabin with a nice V-berth, galley, and enclosed head. There is room to entertain guests in the cockpit with the L-shaped bridgedeck settee, swivel helm seat, and wide stern seat. Access to the water is made easy by the full width teak swim platform and boarding ladder.
