First Photos: The New Kadey-Krogen 52′ Has Arrived
The first Kadey-Krogen 52′ arrived in the U.S. in time for the recent Seattle Boat Show and made her public debut there. The timing was so tight that the Kadey-Krogen team hadn’t had a chance to really begin the commissioning process, so in many of these photos you will see a fairly bare interior. I [...]
Victoria Allman Breaks-In a Trawler Galley
At last week’s Trawler Fest, our own favorite professional chef, Victoria Allman, treated a group of VIP guests of Kadey-Krogen to an evening of haute cuisine hors d’oeuvres (classy snacks). For two evenings, Victoria gave the gorgeous galley aboard the Krogen 55′ Expedition a workout. The Kadey-Krogen folks (author Shannon Band, actually) wrote about the [...]
Outer Reef to Represent Kadey-Krogen Internationally
Apparently Kadey-Krogen had visions of international sugar plums dancing in its corporate head this holiday season, because today they announced with Outer Reef an agreement to have OR represent Kadey-Krogen through all of OR’s “established international sales and service locations.” I’ll probably have more information over the next few weeks, but it’s clear the companies [...]
North From Florida on a Krogen 58′

A Closer Look at the New Krogen 52′
Kadey-Krogen’s recently announced 52′ is a classic example of a builder filling out a product line in specific response to customer demand. In this case, the company already had on offer its well-established 48′ and the new 55′ Expedition. The 55′ Expedition, however, is not really the “other” boat in this comparison — it’s the [...]
