The Karnic 2760 has all the bases covered - a clean design, solid hull and 38 knots on tap. What's not to like?
| For: | Delivers a very frugal fuel consumption |
|---|---|
| Against: | The standard spec should be better |
Karnic started out in the early 1990s building great dayboats and
overnighters with the emphasis on good no-nonsense build quality and
hands-on action.
A near 40-knot
top speed is impressive but even better was how the hull handled this
power and speed. It preferred to stick to the water - making it easy to
control and putting in rail-like turns - rather than dancing about and
finding too much air.
Tested in August 2010
Verdict
This 27ft Karnic has all the solid get-in-and-go attributes that make this manufacturer's boats so appealing. Erring on the side of the clean and lean means it isn't as plush and fussy as others in its size or price class, but then that's precisely what gives the 2760 its edge.
Have your say!

One of the first delivered with D3 160 hp double motors. Hull and behaviour in rough water excellent, consumption very good. Detouchment of water tube from filter to motor after 60 hours resulted in sea water in motor room, obviously due to montage error. However distributor denied repair and exchange of damaged shore power charger! Very poor after sales service.
