EVOLUTION 30

GOOD NEWS - THE 1ST EVOLUTION 30 HAS HAD SEA TRIALS, COMPLETED BY BREAKSEA BOATS, IT HAS A NEF 420HP ENGINE. IF I WAS TO TELL YOU HOW WELL THIS BOAT PERFORMED YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE ME. THE BOAT EXCEEDED THE SPEED THAT WE HAD ANTICIPATED, WITH THE FUEL TANKS VIRTUALLY FULL AND 7 PEOPLE ONBOARD, IT ACHIEVED 31 KNOTS INTO A FORCE 5 AND WITH FULL FUEL TANKS AND 4 PEOPLE ONBOARD IT ACHIEVED 33 KNOTS. THE BOAT MANOEUVRED VERY WELL AT SLOW SPEED IN THE HARBOUR, AS WELL AS OUT TO SEA.

WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK PETER WATTS OF BREAKSEA BOATS, ALAN TAUNTON AND ANDREW ALSOP FOR PUTTING THEIR TRUST IN ANOTHER NEW EVOLUTION DESIGN.

The Evolution 30 has been designed to fulfil customer demand for a boat of this size.

The design has incorporated a full length keel, a propeller tunnel to reduce the shaft angle and a fine entry bow to give superior stability and a smooth weather ride.

This vessel can be used for dive/angling charter, survey work, police, harbour masters,pilot boat, sports clubs or pleasure use.

The styling of the Evolution 30 has a sportier look with the lines on the side of the boat making a two-colour hull more attractive.

Evolution boats can have a composite deck and wheelhouse bulkhead instead of 18mm marine ply to make the boats lighter and even more economical,

There is a toilet on-deck option and a flush engine hatch or engine box option.

All engine applications are available from shaft drive as standard or out drive legs or jet drive.
