About

A more powerful and lengthened version of the acclaimed Bruckmann 50 pilothouse cruising sloop, the new Bruckmann 50 MK II features an integral stern platform extending the hull length, combined with the added power of the optional 200 HP John Deere engine. An easy 10 knot cruising speed was achieved during sea trials at an impressively low fuel consumption of under 5 GPH. The hull extension adds convenient stowage for an inflatable dinghy or scuba gear and provides a broad platform for boarding and swimming access.
