The Defever 53 POC is one of Arthur DeFever’s most desirable designs. Kinship, re-powered in 2023 is now faster, quieter and more efficient. The Kinship cruises effortlessly at 17 kts with a top speed of 22 kts. At 9 - 10 kts (the original hull speed) the boat has 25% more range.
The boat has better economy and range as well as the muscle to run fast when crossing the gulf-stream or outrunning a storm.
