One Superior Boat!

Radons and Andersons have been popular amongst commercial divers, fishermen, and surfers traveling in the not-so-predictable waters of the Pacific. These designs are so desirable here on the Pacific Coast where the boats need to be capable of traveling well in both uphill and downhill surf. The boats are capable of carrying heavy loads at high speeds, and this attribute makes them very stable and fuel efficient.

The Radoncraft hull was designed in the 1990's as a classic Radon-style with additional features for the sport market, including recessed walkaround side decks and larger interior cabin. Other quality features added by Anderson Custom Boats include under-gunwale storage cubbies, extended capacity fuel tanks, aft raised engine compartment, and diesel I/O engine package. Anderson Custom Boats completed construction of this 26.5 x 8.5 Custom at the Anderson yard in Goleta, California in 2007. The boat was first launched and sea trailed outside the Santa Barbara Harbor. With a commercial hull design and sport deck layout, she is very stable, comfortable, and fuel efficient.

Accommodations: Overnight accommodations are provided for three people in three single berths. Interior layout includes two forward side-by-side bunks, starboard enclosed head, and port quarter berth aft.

Hull and Deck Gear: The hull design is modified vee with hydro-lift strake design, suitable for West Coast sea conditions, and enables the boat to stay on a plane and maintain a high speed in both forward sea and following sea conditions. This is the notable design of choice among commercial fisherman from Southern California to the Pacific Northwest. The hull is built of fiberglass, and the decks are fiberglass with non-skid surfacing. Deck layout includes deck at bow, raised foredeck, recessed full walkaround side decks, cockpit helm, raised aft deck over engine compartment with walkaround aisles (port and starboard) to transom.

Engine Details: The power package includes a 260 HP Volvo Penta D4-260 diesel I/O. The boat and engine are brand new with less than one hour of run time on the water for purposes of sea trial. The boat cruises at 22 knots with the engine at 3,000 RPM and reaches maximum speed of 27 knots with the engine at 3,800 RPM. The boat has a range of about 1,000 miles with variances depending on sea conditions and speed. Volvo Penta´s new 4-cylinder D4-260 is developed from the latest design in modern diesel technology.
