This 2004 Custom Petronio Lobster 44 is a wooden downeast motor yacht built using cold-molded West System construction by maestro d'ascia Arrigo Petronio. At 44 feet with a 13-foot beam, the hull combines traditional craftsmanship with seaworthy capability. The single 400 hp Iveco diesel engine delivers a cruising speed of 7.5 knots and a maximum speed of 23 knots, with an operating range of approximately 1000 kilometers.
The accommodations include three cabins and two heads, suited for extended coastal cruising. An electric windlass is fitted for anchoring. The wood construction is known for its quiet interiors and thermal properties, characteristics valued by those seeking a comfortable extended-range cruising platform.
The boat has completed over 20 years of continuous cruising in the Adriatic and Ionian seas. It operates efficiently at low RPM, burning minimal fuel while maintaining a straight course under single-engine power—a practical characteristic for long-distance voyaging.
