Everglades is known for yacht-quality fit and finish. The Everglades 243cc has that, plus innovative features like patented sliding center console windshields and unsinkable RAMCAP construction that fills the hull with high density closed cell, structural foam flotation.
This 24-foot, 3-inch long by 8-foot, 2-inch wide vessel is equally at home being used as a weekend oasis for the family or a versatile fishing machine for the serious angler. A 26-gallon circulating livewell, 75-gallon in-floor fish box, 8 rod holders and twin tackle boxes allow you to target redfish in the bay, snook in the inlet and dolphin offshore. When it's time to relax with the family, they will enjoy comfortable bow seating, a killer stereo, built-in coolers, coaming pads and flip-up stern seating on the rear deck.
With 85 square feet of cockpit the boat tips the scales at 3,500 pounds which allows it to carry up to 300 horses. The 80-gallon fuel capacity extends your range.
