Project: Cranchi 36 Pelican

Based on the hull design and lines of the new 36 Zaffiro, the new Cranchi 36 Pelican aims to recapture the success the Pelican sport fishing line enjoyed during the 80s. The new 36 Pelican is a winner in many cases, offering good accommodation inside with a comfortable 2 seperate double cabins and a transformable c-shaped dinette as is the case for the Zaffiro. The new Pelican enjoys a special sport fisherman friendly cockpit with design enjoyed for making an anglers life as easy as it gets. Hull design is by Aldo Cranchi and the project is by Cranchi Research Development Department. It has two engine options from Volvo offering the D4 engine in 260 or the optional bigger 300 hp format. Propulsion will be an economic and efficient stern drive configuration. The new 36 Pelican is an interesting project capturing both worlds in one boat, that of a sport fisherman in the cockpit outside and of a comfortable cruiser inside with it's well laid out interior.
