Equipment

Purpose-built performance meets thoughtful detail in a Mikelson 50 SF powered by twin Cummins QSC-600 common-rail diesels, backed by a 13.5 kW Onan genset with SmartCraft interface. A factory-molded hardtop and a flybridge 360-degree enclosure crown the commanding bridge, where electronic engine controls with sync, an aft tournament station, an extended bench, and two Stidd helm seats deliver confident control and comfort. Access is effortless via cockpit stairs in lieu of a ladder, complemented by cockpit engine controls on a dedicated mounting pad and automatic 12V engine hatch lifts. Serious anglers will appreciate Lee 26' double-spreader outriggers, twelve stainless rocket launchers, dual in-transom bait tanks, and an enlarged fishbox with macerator. Close-quarters handling is refined by a Sidepower bow thruster, while a “hidden” salon overhead rod locker keeps gear organized. Interior touches include granite countertops in the heads only, a salon U-Line icemaker with 25-lb capacity, a front-load Avante freezer, LED underwater lights, and a salon 42" flat-panel TV on an electric lift. The forward galley layout features a fridge/freezer with icemaker and a Kenyon Mediterranean four-burner stovetop, complemented by a Vitrifrigo undercounter unit in the salon and another Vitrifrigo on the flybridge. Practical upgrades abound: a cockpit freshwater hookup, a backup DC water pump, a molded bow plank with rails, a Lifeline AGM battery upgrade with one extra 8D battery, and a Magnum 3000 W inverter/charger upgrade.

Foredeck/sidedeck

The profile is smartly finished with a black boot stripe, while ground tackle is handled by a Maxwell HRC-10 with dual gypsy feeding 100' of 5/16" High-Test chain and 300' of 5/8" rode, delivering secure anchoring and smooth retrieval.

Cockpit

Designed for action and relaxation, the cockpit features a Glendinning 50' auto shore cord system, seat storage boxes, and a convenient fold-up table. Stainless steel swim step U-rails and aft-facing cockpit cleat hawses add security and utility, while cockpit washdowns and a water-pressure hookup keep operations tidy. Foredeck and cockpit 12V floodlights are mounted atop the hardtop for excellent illumination, and end deck rails at the break and taper enhance safety. Practical fishing touches include bait tank lids on hinges and an Armstrong swim ladder paired with a Garelick dive ladder, with a Garmin sounder supporting the hunt.

Flybridge

The flybridge is thoroughly equipped for command and comfort, with backup analog instrument panels serving both forward and aft stations, a supportive back cushion at the aft bench, two Garmin VHFs for clear communications, and a dedicated air conditioner to keep the helm cool on the hottest days.

Galley

A chef-pleasing workspace, the galley presents a granite countertop and a flush-mounted Kenyon cooktop recessed beneath a granite cover, paired with a front-load freezer and an Emerson eight-bottle wine cooler to elevate provisioning and entertaining.

Interior

Thoughtful craftsmanship defines the interior, with LED lighting throughout the living spaces, engine room, and beneath the salon; drawers riding smoothly on guides; and a refined matte finish accented by high-gloss rails. Convenience comes standard with 110V outlets on each side of the master stateroom berth, sliding overhead hatch covers in both master and guest cabins, and exhaust fans in both heads. A robust Headhunter 110V Mach 5 water pump underpins reliable domestic pressure.

The helm is centered on Garmin integration, featuring twin 12" touchscreen multifunction displays with GPS and a dedicated Garmin instrument display, all supported by a Garmin 6 kW HD radar system with a 6' array and a Garmin satellite weather sensor. A Garmin echo sounder module teams with an Airmar smart TH transducer, while a Garmin network port expander and Garmin marine network cables in 6' and 40' lengths tie the system together. Communications are clear and far-reaching with a Garmin VHF radio transceiver, a Garmin wireless remote handset with wireless hub, a Shakespeare 17'6" Galaxy VHF antenna on a Shakespeare two-piece mount with a Shakespeare stainless upper extension, and a Shakespeare stainless steel flange mount. Precision navigation is enhanced by a Garmin autopilot core pack, a Garmin 2.1 L hydraulic autopilot pump kit, a Garmin rudder feedback sensor with a Simrad rudder feedback sensor for redundancy, and a Garmin 5 m extension cable.
