Manufacturer Provided Description

Her superior ride is due to increased running surface of the integrated transom which is more structurally sound because it's part of the hull and not a separate bolt-on bracket.

Standard features include a self-bailing cockpit, one piece flush deck, raised livewell, large center console for extensive electronics and up to a 240 gallon optional fuel capacity for those long offshore runs. This is a true hardworking tournament winner with a long, proud and proven legacy.
