2005 Luhrs Custom 29
Twin Mercury Verados 275hp - 700hours
Custom built for the president of Luhrs, this is truly a one-of-a-kind boat. With an 11’ 6” beam and twin low-hour 275 Mercury Verados on a factory-installed bracket, this boat was built ahead of its time and offers unique value compared to other boats at this price level. A davit crane lifts a 10’ dinghy onto the hard top, all new professionally installed Garmin electronics (chartplotter, radar, w/ integrated auto-pilot), newly added aquatraction, upholstery (in and out), new helm seat, recently upgraded backlit helm switches (from NewWire Marine), nothing has been sparred both aesthetically and by way of service from the local legends at Island Marine in Kittery, ME.

General Commentary:
This is an extremely unique boat in its vintage/price range given its beam/style with outboard engines. The large hard top with davit crane allows for additional safety as well as convenience, mooring options, etc. There is an incredible amount of storage below the helm station all the way under the main deck (where the inboards would normally be).
It cruises at 23/24 or 12-14 nicely, top speed is 38 with a substantial range. A great deal of care and detail has been incorporated since the current owner bought it in 2020.
