Standard equipment

This model is anchored by premium metallurgy: all hardware is 316-L stainless steel, and every rail is crafted of welded 316-L stainless steel for enduring strength, gleaming finish, and unwavering seaworthiness.

Cockpit utility center

At the cockpit utility center, meal prep and cleanup are effortless thanks to a cutting board paired with a sink with drain, while a stainless steel grab rail adds secure handhold in a seaway; a YETI cooler (35 qt) stands ready to keep provisions perfectly chilled.

Bow area

Forward, the bow invites relaxation with cushions complete with supportive backrests, while a bow walkthrough block off panel calms the breeze when under way; four drink holders pair with a recessed storage and cup holder compartment, fiberglass lids with latches secure your gear, and welded stainless steel forward grab rails provide confident movement up front.

Console

At the helm, command comes naturally with a cast stainless steel steering wheel wrapped in a urethane grip, set before a tempered glass windshield served by a starboard windshield wiper and shaded by a dash visor; a compass, courtesy light, and two drink holders keep you oriented and at ease, while an electronics mounting surface and an access panel to electronics simplify upgrades and service, helm and companion footrests enhance posture, an electrical switch panel with circuit breaker protection safeguards systems, a storage bucket and trash door tame clutter, and every detail works in concert for clarity and control.

Head

Within the private head, a molded sink with drain pairs seamlessly with a portable head with pump-out, illuminated by an interior light and complemented by a dash visor, while a lockable entry door ensures discretion and a stainless steel grab rail with two stainless steel storage hooks adds practical security and stowage.

Seating

Seating adapts elegantly to every moment, combining a convertible port lounge seat with storage, a custom helm seat on a high/low pedestal for perfect sightlines, and a fold-out stern seat with backrest that appears when guests arrive and stows cleanly when it is time to fish.

Mechanical

Confidence begins with propulsion from a 250 V8 DTS Black Mercury FourStroke engine with hydraulic power steering, driving a stainless steel propeller with smooth authority; vigilance and reliability are built in with an automatic bilge pump, dual battery trays with switch, an electric horn, and an engine fuel/water separator, while range and refreshment come courtesy of a fuel tank of 111 gallons, plastic with barrier coat, and a freshwater system of 18 gallons with a cockpit sink sprayer and head sink sprayer; precision and awareness are elevated by LED navigation lights, recessed electric trim tabs with indicators, a SmartCraft deluxe gauge package, a dedicated transducer mount area, tilt steering for fine-tuned control, and connected insight through VesselView Mobile.
