Available in Italy, this 1999 Luhrs 28 Open represents a high-specification opportunity for those seeking a proven sport fishing platform. Following an extensive refit between 2020 and 2023, the vessel features two Yanmar 270 hp engines that were rebuilt and now have approximately 150 hours since the major service. The technical upgrade includes new risers, alternators, turbine replacements, and upgraded propellers to ensure reliable performance on the water.
Designed for serious angling and comfort, the deck layout is equipped with 17 rod holders, five power outlets for electric reels, and salt-water washdown capability in the cockpit. The vessel provides a cruising speed of 22 knots with a consumption of 40 liters per hour, while reaching a maximum speed of 28 knots. The addition of a trolling valve and complete safety equipment for navigation beyond 12 miles makes this boat ready for immediate offshore operation.
The interior and exterior amenities have been thoroughly updated. The 2022 refit included new original Luhrs cushions, mattress sets, and carpet. The vessel features a separate WC, a functional galley, and fridge, providing comfortable overnight accommodations. Exterior aesthetics and durability are ensured by 2023 epoxy painting with silicone finish, complemented by an oversized swim platform and comprehensive LED lighting systems.
Additional recent maintenance includes new 2023 batteries, a 2025-certified 8-person life raft, and a stainless steel 25 kg anchor with 70 meters of chain. The T-top enclosure and sun awning provide versatile protection for various weather conditions. With dual 600L fuel tanks and a 300L water capacity, this boat is equipped for extended trips. This Luhrs 28 Open is currently berthed in Italy and is available for viewing and sea trials upon request.
