As I get the opportunity to test many boats throughout the year, one thing I see all too often is manufacturers that don’t spend enough time on the water using their own products. If they did, switches would be easier to see and systems would have better access. Along these same lines some boat builders use anti-skid as more of a design pattern instead of its intended use of a secure place to step.

The large forward casting deck has an anchor locker, two dry storage compartments and a round live baitwell. The flat area to port accepts a trolling motor and it’s pre-wired. The forward mounted fuel tank helps to offset the weight of the outboard motor and gives the hull a shallower draft.

The large center console has a step down interior for additional storage and a marine head. The dash can accept twin large MFDs for your electronics. A one piece level deck from bow to stern lets you position your angler anywhere you want for battling offshore pelagics and the self-bailing cockpit can be washed down in a snap.
