Each boat is equipped with twin Yamaha F250 or F225 four‑stroke engines, delivering the performance needed for both inshore hops and offshore transit.
Navigation, stereo and swim access included
Onboard systems include a 10″ Garmin color GPS with sounder and a Bluetooth stereo; every 27‑foot boat also comes with a dive ladder and a capacity to accommodate up to a dozen people.
