Steber is a small high quality builder of recreational and commercial vessels up to 72ft. In business nearly 80 years they produce high quality vessels well regarded by Police, rescue organizations, fisherfolk, and recreational users. They also refit the vessels they sold years ago, to a high standard.
A recent article in my insurer`s quarterly magazine alerted me to this new vessel, and I found a section on Steber`s website dealing with it. The vessel they fitted out is a 40ft workboat style vessel, but their popular 40ft FB cruiser uses the same hull and the electrics could easily replace the big diesels currently fitted. Steber don`t build trawlers though their planing cruisers would serve well and are a handsome boat. Steber say, proudly, their planing boats are designed so trim tabs are quite unnecessary.
I hope the article is of interest to the hybrid and electric aficionados on TF.
