Sea Glass 27 – Classic Kiwi Character with Comfortable Family Cruising

There’s something special about a vessel with a genuine working heritage — and POPEYEcarries hers proudly. Originally launched in 1986 as a hardworking longline fishing vessel, this rugged and reliable Sea Glass 27 has since been thoughtfully transformed into a wonderfully practical family pleasure craft, offering comfortable coastal cruising, relaxed weekends away, and classic Kiwi boating charm.

Designed and built by the respected Sea Glass Vessels yard in Whangārei, POPEYE combines the strength of traditional hand-laid fibreglass construction with simple, dependable systems and impressive accommodation for her size.

Powered by a trusted 90hp Ford diesel delivering economical cruising at around 7 knots, she’s a vessel built for relaxed adventures and easy ownership. With upgraded electrical systems, solar capability, hot and cold pressure water, generous sleeping arrangements, and a practical layout throughout, she offers exceptional versatility for couples, families, or anyone wanting an affordable cruiser with character.
