2017 Kadey-Krogen Krogen 58EB

The Kadey-Krogen 58EB that recently sold for $1,824,500 was a prime example of why these full displacement trawlers command such respect in the market. This particular 2017 model, located in Stuart, FL, represented an exceptional opportunity for serious cruisers. What made the Krogen 58EB so sought after, and why this one moved quickly, is its unparalleled build quality and true long-range capability. You're looking at a hull designed for ocean crossings, not just coastal hops. With its robust fiberglass construction and efficient hull form, it offers an incredible fuel range, making extended cruising to the Bahamas, Caribbean, or even the Great Loop not just possible, but comfortable and safe. The 'EB' designation, or 'Extended Bridge,' significantly enhances the living space, providing a larger pilothouse and often a more expansive flybridge for entertaining. Buyers who missed this one should understand that Kadey-Krogens are built to a standard that few production yachts achieve, focusing on seaworthiness, systems redundancy, and liveability. This 58-footer, with its generous interior volume and thoughtful layout, truly felt like a home on the water. It’s why Yacht Access consistently sees strong demand for these proven cruisers.

This Krogen 58EB was perfectly suited for an owner-operator couple or family looking to undertake serious long-distance cruising, such as extended stays in the Bahamas, exploring the entire Caribbean, or completing the Great Loop with utmost comfort and safety.

The typical buyer for a Kadey-Krogen 58EB is an experienced, discerning owner-operator, often moving up from a smaller trawler, who prioritizes seaworthiness, fuel efficiency, and liveaboard comfort for extended voyaging over speed.
