Roberts Waverunner 52

The original A and B versions of this design can be built as semi-displacement and offer two great cruising layouts. They can be built in either steel, aluminium or fibreglass.

The new version 'C' of the popular Waverunner 52 will find favour with those who prefer the Trawler Yacht styling. This plan was prepared for a builder from Florida who wished to undertake some serious cruising and finds this type of larger power cruiser best suits his requirements. Although this version of the design is suited to fibreglass or wood/epoxy construction, to date the plans have only been drawn for steel or aluminium. If you are considering building in one of the other materials then we can prepare semi-custom plans to suit your needs. Twin engines are planned for this boat however a single engine installation is possible. The hull could be modified to a full displacement type for those who prefer that configuration.

The Sport Fisherman version 'D' features a modern styling on a semi displacement hull design. The first of this design is being built in Scotland and will be used as a charter party fishing boat.

Displacement and Draft will vary slightly according to version and hull building material.

These pages can be printed out which may enable you to more clearly see the many variations of this design.
