TEST VIDEO. One of our favorite boats in the Eastern line is the 27 Tournament. The reason we like her is because she can do it all — inshore and offshore fishing, comfortable cruising in all weather conditions, and with her large cockpit, she has plenty of entertaining space. Find out how she handles and more.
TEST VIDEO. For wakesurfing, we recommend a boat such as the Chaparral 28 Surf. Her traditional seaworthy bow allows her to be used offshore or in big water — she's not a one-trick pony. Yet, she has the ballast bags, surf gates and glassdash controls of a tournament wakesurfer — and for less money!
PRE-OWNED YACHT. Here’s a like-new Boston Whaler 350 Realm with only 75 hours on the triple 300-hp Mercury Verados! She has two Raymarine 16” Axiom MFDs, Raymarine radar, a hardtop with curtains, anchor windlass with 300’ chain and a cockpit kitchen. She can overnight two in air-conditioned comfort.
