Overview

About the W-29

At nearly 29 feet with a 7.6-foot beam and 5,511-pound capacity rating, the W-29 is built for operators who need a serious commercial platform — not just a recreational boat that happens to be big. Its wide, open deck accommodates large crews, heavy gear loads, and custom commercial rigging configurations that smaller hulls can’t support.

A 115 HP Yamaha is the base price-point motor — about 25 mph at cruise and 30–35 mph wide open. The all-around ideal setup is 150 HP. Twins from 90 HP × 2 through 250 HP × 2 are also available. From deep-sea charter fleets to eco-tour operators running multiple passengers daily, the W-29 is the hull commercial buyers ask for by name.
