Background and Identification

The Adventure Craft AC2800 (often simply referred to as the AC28) is a "Cabinyacht" designed by JRW Manufacturing Inc. starting in the late 1990s 5 3. Tailored to boaters wanting the utility of a houseboat without the slip costs or towing restrictions of larger vessels, the AC2800 was built using a trimaran-hull configuration that provides exceptional stability and a very shallow draft 2 1.

This boat can be identified by its distinctive boxed cabin geometry, large wraparound sliding screened windows 3, and an upper flybridge deck featuring a secondary helm station 4.
