Center mounted engine under the console means lots of open deck space for this 23’ boat
With the engine under center console the cockpit is wide open you are free from outboard engines/transom brackets that get in the way or I/O engine box to trip over. Cockpit room is important to fishermen and divers. Easy to move from stern to bow when running down big fish. With the angler at the bow (or chair) there is no need to get drenched backing down in reverse.
The boat performs very well with respectable speeds and fuel economy in varying sea conditions with the Deep-V hull design, center mounted engine and large hydraulic trim tabs. For safety, the boat is equipped with the Fell Marine MOB Kill Switch and required safety equipment. Included is a full custom boat cover and much more. Since the boat was upgraded it’s been meticulously maintained with an open checkbook by local professionals. The optional boat lift is a great way to enjoy the boat in a slip and avoid typical maintenance cost.
