Certainly looks the goods for just about any type of fishing you want to put to it. Plenty of deck space. Could do with a little bit of shade to fish in if you aim at taking it north though.
Too right Tim, i deleted the cabin as it is not required and created a massive front casting platform. With the high bar work the kids can fish up forward no worries.
Of course being a center console you are gonna get a bit wet, but if you want to fish then it goes with the territory.

The guys at Bosun Marine who fitted her out reckon it is fine, they tested it at speed (Furuno 620 with 600w)
Worst case is we go through hull, wet box .
