At Zimmerman Marine we're creating relationships - not dealerships. Unsurpassed quality and safety, enduring value, and choice. A long keel gives the Zimmerman 36 directional stability without sacrificing speed. It also protects the propeller, shaft, and rudder from grounding and debris in the water. The Zimmerman 36 is an extremely capable boat - able to go out in almost any weather and return unscathed.
Owners often report that the boat can take considerably more than they can.
That's what you would expect from a hull form that's evolved through a hundred years of commercial fishing off the coast of Maine. Don't let her handsome lines fool you - this is a workboat hull, bred to work offshore, year round, in the worst weather. Her seaworthiness is legendary. To many prospective powerboat owners, particularly those who come from a sailing background, the 7-9 knot cruising speed of a trawler seems perfectly adequate. There are good reasons why it is not.
