The Blackfin 332 CC and the 272 DC function as well as they look
The new additions to the Blackfin family have something for both the hardcore angler and the family fishermen.
The step-hull of the Blackfin 332 CC performed well as you'd expect in near glass conditions in Tampa Bay. Hull-shot and stability at rest checked off positive.
Specs:
LOA w/swim platform 33'2” Fuel Capacity 315-gallons Water Capacity 50-gallons
The tackle station was equipped with everything you'd need to rig baits or fix lunch. Including a 20-gal insulated livewell.
The dual-cooler slide outs for the 45-quart Yeti coolers make access to your bait or beverages a snap.
Who says boat seating can't be accommodating? With a push of a button you can move your leaning station forward to make your Llebroc seating perfectly positioned for the boat driver.
And if you need to be taller, flip down the “insta-height” flush mounted floor and add six-plus inches to the boat drivers line of sight.
The easy slide battery trays allow you easy access to properly maintain and access your batteries, two on one side for the house batteries and two on the other for cranking batteries.
Standard pressurized livewell pumps guarantee you'll make it to the fishing grounds with healthy happy baits.
The flip up access hatch on the rear of the hard-top give you easy access to the top of your hard-top and access to your upper station if you choose to have one.
The chase lounge not only provides comfortable seating and necessary storage
The forward seating of the 332 CC allows you to comfortably spend time with family in the front of the boat while serious fishing goes on in the stern.
The legendary Blackfin ride lives on in the comfort in the brand-new 272 DC
The 272 DC will impress your fishing buddies, as well as their families. You'll be able to accommodate them all. The oversized cockpit, above deck live-well, saltwater washdown, multiple rod holders and transom door will keep the anglers catching. And the forward seating, and cockpit seating when called into duty, stereo, head and wetbar and sink will keep the family happy.

For divers a side mounted ladder in the stern provides easy access to the cockpit.
The large cockpit allows more than enough room for serious fishing while optional pullout barbeque and refrigerator turn the 272 into a cruising family boat without sacrificing any fishing room.
In less than two minutes an electric sliding chase and flip down seating turned the open cockpit dual console into a family cruiser.
The bow-seating was adequate, somewhat smaller than some dual consoles, but the larger cockpit was definitely a bonus in my book.
A head with a Porta Potti, vanity- with solid surface top- also comes with a pump out deck fitting.
Ample room for large flush mounted electronics as well as easy access to all of your switches give you the feel that you're operating a serious fishing boat.
A large in-deck hatch in the cockpit allow you easy access to your thru-hull fittings as well as your live-well and bilge pumps.
