The Fisherman 352 is the largest model in Wellcraft's Offshore range, designed for sport fishing, and already includes 6 models from 5.59 m to 9.20 m). With a length of 35 feet (10.75 m), the 352F offers all the necessary fishing equipment, but also a comfortable arrangement to take your family on board. In total, the boat is certified to accommodate up to 14 people.
A cockpit dedicated to fishing
At Wellcraft, the idea is to offer a fishing area at the back and a family area at the front.
In the cockpit, there is a sink/bait tank and a fish stocking with oxygen and cooling plate in the transom. On the ground, a large fish tank is equipped with a grinder/macerator. The rear bench seat is retractable to free up space and not hinder movement when fishing. It is also possible to choose a boat without a rear seat.
On the port side, the side door (with an optional ladder) that was optional on the previous models - 262 and 302 - is now standard on the 352 F. Designed to facilitate boarding, it also makes it easier to bring back on board large catches.
Behind the cockpit, the preparation station is equipped with a 120 L oxygenated livewell, with optional cutting board and grill. The starboard storage spaces for fishing are very practical, but available as an option, as is the refrigerator.
Side rod holders are located at the rear and comfort foams are located inside the bulwarks. To port, there are still storage spaces hidden in the bulwarks.
A qualitative cockpit
The central steering station has three bolster seats with footrests and armrests that allow you to drive in 3 different positions: seated, seated standing with the end of the seat raised or standing with the seat fully lowered. The latter position is found only on the centre seat.
The dashboard is equipped with two optional 22-inch Garmin GPS displays and the Mercury Joystick option.
As an option, it is possible to install a second steering station at a height on the T-top, accessible from a ladder at the rear.
A cabin to extend the duration of navigation
In the console, there is a cabin with a bathroom area, toilets and extra beds. This new layout - which can be accessed via a lateral opening on the port side - makes it possible to plan longer trips at sea. Except on the 302, which also had a lateral opening in the console, access was from the front of the console and only toilets were available below deck.
A front area dedicated to comfort
At the front, the space is very important and dedicated to comfort. There is a beautiful U-shaped seat opposite a large trunk attached to the console and covered with a complete seat with cushion, armrests and headrests.
As an option, a table can be used for meals and headrests can be used to transform the U's side seats into deckchairs with sea views. The cooler that serves as the center seat of the U on the front is removable.
The 352F is equipped with a large 1?423-litre fuel tank and can hold up to 1275 HP (3x425 HP), in double or triple engines. With 3 400 HP Mercury outboard motors, the boat reaches a speed of 56 knots.
New finishes
In 2019, Wellcraft strengthened its identity with the creation of a new graphic: yellow and black colours and new designs inspired by the animal world. These finishes of the Offshore Pack have been reworked in terms of design (scales instead of braces) and are inspired by the "Kryptec", used in the military, hunting, fishing and, but also in the automotive and adventure clothing sectors.
Sports and family
This new model, built entirely of fibreglass with a high-density polyurethane foam transom (Wellcraft's trademark), has all the necessary equipment for sport fishing, but a comfortable layout for the companions. With its impressive tank and cabin, it makes it possible to envisage sailing off the coast for a few days. Its three engines give it a sporty and fast navigation for a maximum of sensation. The equipment is top-of-the-range and the finishes are of high quality, but mostly optional. This model is eagerly awaited in the United States and will soon be followed by a 40-foot model.
