Center Console

Type Center Console
Length 35 feet (10.7 m)
Manufacturer Sea Hunter
Max Passengers 6 (4 recommended)
Air Conditioning No
Bathroom No
Kid Friendly Yes
A center console charter is a unique experience since these types of boats are quicker and more agile than a typical sportfish. Another advantage of this boat is that it offers 360 degree fishability so you won't lose fish under the boat. You'll feel "closer" to the water, which is great if you don't mind getting splashed, but not great for those who are prone to seasickness.
