Eastern Boats began manufacturing boats way back in 1981. At that time the company started out building only one model the 18. Since then the company has added many new boat models to there their stable from 18' to 35' pleasure boats as well as their line of commercial boats used by many state and municipalities for every use from fire rescue, marine police as well as commercial waterman.
With this year being their 30th anniversary they have brought back the basic boat, an 18' CC with no frills attached. Most Eastern Boats are custom built to provide the buyer with the ability to create exactly what they want. However, in this case they have gone back to their roots and created an entry level boat that follows in the footsteps of the model "T" ford that is it rolled out of the factory only one way and one color. By doing so they have produced a great small boat complete with a galvanized trailer and 50 HP Mercury outboard for only $19,999.
The boat is built with all of the latest technology such as all composite material construction, stainless steel hardware used through out and a foam filled stringer system to provide flotation. This is not just your average stripped down CC but a well finished, well engineered boat that will serve the owner for many years.
