AS TODAY’S MOST POPULAR CENTER CONSOLES more closely resemble luxury mega yachts and routinely reach lengths eclipsing 40 feet, capable vessels like the Sailfish 241CC remind us that offshore fishability can be achieved without such an absurd price tag. Building on the Sailfish heritage, this noteworthy platform is set to change the way you spend time on the water through exceptional efficiency, versatility and value.
With a sixth generation Variable Degree Stepped hull that features the manufacturer’s SailTech construction and a simple, yet effective layout, this platform translates to comfort and fishability not often seen on a 24-foot vessel. Additionally, one of the most important draws to any of the boats in the Sailfish lineup is reasonable pricing, something that’s becoming a rarity among vessels designed for scouring blue water.
