Man, those Langs always had that funky bow.....have read in different posts that she's a wet boat , but my opinion means squat, as I have never been on one....

Its a neat boat but what drives someone to set up on the port side? I'm a lefty and I still don't get it...

The master race(left handers) I'm one also and your right why would they rig a boat that way ??

Hi all: I had a 28 Lang (cabin job) for 6 years. Not what I would consider a wet boat. Bow had a sharp entry and cut through, funky shape shed water aside. It was S L O W.

Was thinking about this for a project. Anyone know anything about this boat I have been told they are slow but most seem under powered. I'm not looking for a rocket ship but the hundred square of the Hudson is a solid 95nm from my inlet and if she will only do 14kts no matter what she's powered with I would have to pass. I would like to make 18-20kts if at all possible. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated.

Lang

Luke: My 28 Lang was powered by a 8.1L Mercruiser Horizon, 370 HP. I usually ran the boat at 3000-3200 and made about 10-12 Kts in still water. I was propped correctly I believe because the motor would make 4200 at WOT which was to spec. The boat would do 18 kts or so at 4000 but I would only blip it to 4K once in a while. A SLOW, but stable boat. Funky looking yes, but a large cockpit and sturdy. Had a nice FB as well.

Years of hauling from the other side ,
That's what causes those lefties

Thanks for the info Phil! Knowing that my targeted speed is possible is just wha i needed to persue this alittle further. I'm stuck on a ship for the next three weeks but if she's still around when I get off I may go up and take a look at her. She looks fishy and as a lefty I think that p/s station would fit me just fine. Thanks again
Luke
