Hammer Down - SEA CHASER FOR SALE

27 ft 2018 Sea Chaser 27 HFC, “Hammer Down”

A refined bluewater center console designed to thrill anglers and pamper family and friends, this 2018 Sea Chaser 27 HFC balances serious sportfishing prowess with polished dayboat comfort. A 2025 10,000‑lb dual‑axle trailer is included, and the vessel is presently stored on the trailer in a secure yard, making inspection and transport effortless. At the helm, dual Garmin 18" XSV multifunction displays pair with a Garmin 24" radar for crisp navigation and fish-finding, while factory outriggers expand your spread for productive trolling offshore. Twin Suzuki 200 HP outboards deliver confident punch with impressive fuel economy, giving this offshore fishing boat the range and reliability you want for long runs and quick sprints alike.

Meticulously maintained and turn‑key, “Hammer Down” benefits from a completed 500‑hour service, so engine maintenance is up to date and ready for the season. Purpose‑built fishability defines the cockpit: dual livewells keep bait lively, multiple insulated fish boxes safeguard the day’s catch, and smart tackle storage keeps rigs organized and within reach. The hull’s ride quality is composed and dry, a hallmark of a capable saltwater powerboat engineered for bluewater pursuits, tournament duty, and weekend explorations.

When it’s time to shift from sportfishing to family cruising, the 27 HFC shines with gracious forward seating for relaxed conversations at anchor or while underway. A well‑placed wet bar simplifies serving refreshments, and fold‑down cockpit seating appears when extra space is needed, then tucks away to clear the deck for action. The side dive door streamlines boarding from the dock or after a swim, enhancing safety and convenience for snorkelers, divers, and kids alike. Thoughtful ergonomics, quality finishes, and durable materials complete a package that feels upscale yet adventure‑ready.

Blending the spirit of a sportfish with the ease of a family cruiser, this center console offers the versatility to chase pelagics at dawn, then slip to a quiet sandbar by afternoon. Whether you’re plotting your next offshore strike or planning a sun‑splashed weekend escape, “Hammer Down” is the elegant, capable, and efficient companion that does it all—an inviting, tournament‑ready fishing machine and refined dayboat in one.

Manufacturer provided description

For over thirty years, Carolina Skiff has pursued a singular standard of excellence, and that commitment shines in the Sea Chaser series and the all‑new Hybrid Fish & Cruise (HFC)—a genuinely revolutionary design engineered from the keel up for devoted anglers and active families alike. This versatile platform arrives richly appointed with heavy‑duty stainless‑steel fold‑down cleats, under‑gunwale LED lighting, a stainless‑steel anchor chock, windlass‑ready anchor storage, an in‑floor, fully insulated lockable fish box, a built‑in lifting eye, illuminated stainless‑steel LED cup holders, a tilt steering wheel, and a digital Command Link Plus interface, to name only a few. Whether your day calls for hardcore fishing or unhurried family time on the water, the HFC’s adaptability rises to every occasion and fulfills every expectation.

Standard features

Every detail of the HFC underscores capability and comfort, beginning with 100% composite construction and NMMA/ABYC certification, a quick‑lift high‑performance step hull, a self‑bailing deck, and stainless‑steel through‑hull drains that inspire confidence offshore. The bow carries a powder‑coated steel low‑profile bow rail and cushioned bow and side bolster pads, while patented LED bow navigation lights are cleanly integrated into the rub rail. An inviting bow U‑shape seating area conceals a generous 400‑quart storage capacity beneath deluxe, removable cushions, complemented by a removable bow table and an in‑floor bow fish box rated at 208 quarts with a macerator pump. Anchoring is effortless thanks to a stainless‑steel anchor chock with roller, dedicated bow anchor rope storage with a lifting eye, and a full windlass anchor system.

Anglers are rewarded with gunwale‑mounted rod storage with coaming pads, gunwale‑mounted stainless‑steel rod holders and a total of 19 stainless‑steel rod holders distributed throughout the boat. Live‑bait management is exceptional: aft, a 30‑gallon baitwell features a recirculating system and LED light; the leaning post integrates a 40‑gallon baitwell with tackle trays, its own recirculating system, and LED illumination; and Max Air aeration is fitted to all wells. At the helm, a fiberglass console with side entry houses an electric flushing head, while the driver enjoys hydraulic steering with a tilt helm, a stainless‑steel Power Grip steering wheel, a motor‑matched digital gauge package, and an LED‑lit flush‑mount compass. A console footrest with glove box and utility pocket adds practical convenience, as do blue/white LED courtesy lights and LED lighting within storage compartments, plus an LED stern light for clear visibility after dusk.

Entertainment and electronics are thoughtfully integrated: a powder‑coated T‑top provides blue/white LED lighting and stereo speakers (4), with a molded‑in electronics box overhead. The Infinity AM/FM stereo with Bluetooth/USB/Aux inputs drives 4 marine‑grade speakers, and in‑gunwale stereo speakers (4) envelop the cockpit in rich sound. Comfort and access abound with a swim platform with boarding ladder and a telescopic fold‑up boarding ladder, a port‑side entry door, a fold‑away bench seat ahead of the console, and rear bench seating with 2 fold‑away bench seats. Smart storage solutions include a starboard‑side rear cabinet with tackle storage and knife holders, a forward starboard bow cabinet with tackle storage and a storage drawer, and a forward port‑side bow cabinet with storage drawers and a shelf. High‑pressure washdown with a retractable hose reel and a freshwater washdown with a pull‑up shower wand make cleanup easy, while safety essentials such as an electric‑lift bilge access compartment and a fire extinguisher come standard. Finishing touches include six stainless‑steel lighted cup holders with blue LED illumination and six heavy‑duty stainless‑steel fold‑down cleats, ensuring the HFC is as refined as it is ready.
