The NauticStar 28XS Offshore is a serious fishing boat that doubles as a great family friendly pleasure boat.
The 28XS is 28'4" long and 9'8" wide center console. The hull design is 21 degrees deadrise at the transom for stability at rest and 50 degrees at the bow providing a soft ride in rougher waters. The extreme bow flair allows for more comfort and displaces the water away from the passengers. The hull also has a reverse chine that helps the boat plane quickly, giving it more lift for a high and dry ride.
