Forty knots, delivered from a hull short enough to fit almost anywhere.
The standard Volvo Penta V8 inboard sends the KL 27 IB to a 25 knot cruise and on to 40 knots at the top end, with Mercury 350hp or Yamaha 300hp outboard options for owners who prefer that setup instead. Displacement sits at 3,000 kilograms, keeping the hull light on its feet and quick to answer the helm. A 0.9 metre draught means she clears sandbars and shallow approaches that would stop a deeper hulled boat cold, and 530 litres of fuel carry her through a full day of running without a thought for the tank.
Her lines are tight, purposeful and built for a single afternoon rather than a week away.
A GRP hull and planing configuration keep the KL 27 IB light and responsive, while a beam of 2.6 metres holds a surprising amount of deck within a modest footprint. The cockpit opens onto a sun lounge and a swim platform set low to the water, so swimming, diving and coming back aboard all happen without ceremony. Ample seating wraps the cockpit for a group of eight day guests, and the whole layout is built around movement: from helm to bow, from lounge to platform, nothing asks you to squeeze past anything else.
One cabin, and everything about it says weekend rather than week.
Below decks, a single berth sleeps two, finished with the same care as the rest of the boat rather than treated as an afterthought. It is not a cruising interior in the conventional sense: it is a place to change, to nap through the hottest part of the afternoon, or to stay over after a late dinner ashore before heading back out at first light. Fittings are modern and finished cleanly, in keeping with a boat that spends most of her life with the sun on her deck rather than a roof over her head.
Eight guests, one afternoon, no fixed plan needed.
The KL 27 IB is built around the kind of day that starts with a fast run out of the marina and ends wherever the group decides to stop. She is quick enough to close distance to the next bay before anyone gets restless, and stable enough at rest to swim, sunbathe and eat lunch off the back without a second thought. The inboard V8 keeps noise and vibration low at cruising speed, so conversation on the sun lounge stays easy even with the throttle open. She rewards an owner who wants performance on tap without the commitment of a larger, crewed yacht.
Built by Key Largo’s own design and engineering teams, and priced to make fast ownership straightforward.
At 8.6 metres LOA on a 2.6 metre beam, the KL 27 IB is engineered in house from naval architecture through to interior fit out, keeping her specification consistent from hull to helm. A new build starts at 120,000 euros, positioning her as an accessible entry into performance day boating rather than a stretch purchase. With a choice of inboard or outboard propulsion and a shallow draught that widens where she can go, she suits an owner who wants one boat that does the job of both a tender and a proper day yacht.
