The Buster Magnum Cabin uses an aluminium hull and reinforced-plastic cabin to make a 7.58-metre boat practical in cooler and wetter conditions. It is designed for eight people and offers panoramic windows rather than the open-console layout of the standard Magnum.
A cabin with nearly all-round views
Large glazing gives the helm an open feeling while keeping passengers behind an enclosed shell. A navigator's seat can turn towards the table, with storage and charging points arranged around the consoles.
Visibility still depends on window condition, weather and what is carried around the boat. The skipper must check blind spots and use an appropriate lookout during harbour manoeuvres.
Space used for journeys
The builder quotes a 350-litre bow stowage compartment, with roof rails for appropriate light loads. Such features suit provisioning, outdoor gear or a regular trip between islands and a home berth.
A cabin does not by itself make an open-water passage safe in severe weather. The actual design category, load and crew experience still define sensible operating conditions.
Outboard and dimensions
The official range allows Yamaha outboards between 225 and 300 horsepower with a 280-litre fuel tank. The manufacturer lists a 2.55-metre beam and 1,650-kilogram weight before the engine.
Weight, trailer capacity and overall transport height need checking if an owner plans road storage. The roof, accessories and engine change the ready-to-tow calculation.
A practical comparison
This model favours sheltered seating and longer seasonal use over the easy walk-through arrangement of an open boat. Owners should inspect the access points, ventilation, heater options and the actual fitted electronics.
