Owner Experience Review

Owners who run the ConvertiblebyPOSTtend to use it hard offshore for tournament-style fishing, citing a fishing-first cockpit and gear suited to serious work. At the same time, it pulls double duty on family weekends: the salon and galley layouts get steady praise for hosting guests when the rods are stowed, and some examples have seen light day-charter or delivery use after electronics and systems updates.

On the water, the boat delivers a stout, dependable feel with a comfortable, stable cruise rather than headline top speed. Owners of older 42’/46’ examples report a tendency to bow-steer in following or quartering seas; they mitigate it with trim tabs and measured adjustments to course and speed.

Life aboard reflects traditional POSTcraftsmanship: a roomy salon for guests, a practical galley, and an engine room with generous access that makes routine service comparatively straightforward. Forward accommodations are functional but not apartment-sized on earlier layouts. Expect aging systems on many boats—electrical and controls work is common, original schematics are often sought, and limited-production components can push repair costs higher than casual buyers anticipate.

Pros and Cons

• Fishing-first cockpit and gear suit serious offshore sportfishing.
• Roomy salon and practical galley make weekend entertaining easy.
• Generous engine-room access simplifies routine service.
• Cruise and top-end speeds are moderate, not among the fastest convertibles.
• Older 42'/46' boats can bow-steer in following or quartering seas and demand attentive trim and speed management.
• Aging systems and limited-production components can raise service and repair costs.
