Im pretty sure these people have 39 yellowfins for booze cruising


Yellowfin for the money crowd. Most hard core fisherman didn’t use them. They are pretty tho!

I remember flying by one in the gulf. It was getting its arse kicked in the seas. The freeman blew past it.

Saw a Turner bay boat today around lake Charles. Had never heard of those. Holy crap it was sharp


Saw black one on the water yesterday. They are sharp. It’s a carbon copy of the 24 yellowfin. Supposedly faster though.

Another boat I see online a lot lately is 25 LTB made in Florida. Can be single engine or twins.

I fished one in Venice before when it was pretty nasty and I thought it did really well.

Not like it matters though, point is these people buy $450k boats for day cruisers and my dumb arse hoping my ol evinrude holds out for another decade

We are MS GC and have a 24 Sea Hunt. Good boat, little higher gunnels. Can still slap around in the slop though, but that's likely with most of the 24' bay boats.

The guides here run Blazer Bay 2400 (rolled gunnel, not the liner model), Sea Hunts, Blackjack, Crevalle. The 2400 Blazer seems to be the model of choice, but its a little heavier on the fishing setup rather than the family set up. No jump seats, etc. It does have a little bit more deadrise at the stern than ours.
