In no particular order and assume same options for each boat.

Caymas 26 HB



24 Robalo Cayman



24 BW Dauntless



24 Yellowfin Bay



Everglades 243

I love the yellowfin but my problem is a grew up in a boston whaler family and I feel like a rebel if I went off brand.

The new caymas is also fantastic looking IMO.

Picture is of a Bay Boat with trolling motor....and four 30 wide blue water rods on the back.

This Do Everything Hybrid trend is out of hand.

Hmmm. I'm not familiar.

I just checked them out and it's really a good looking boat. I like the very slight Carolina flare look.

If you're gonna include the Yellowfin, why not the Shearwater 2700 Carolina?

Because I'm not familiar with Shearwater. I just checked them out and it looks very nice.

Man, I've fished a YF 29 and 32 and can only report back how impressed I am with the quality. They fish great and run like banshees, excellent ride.... They are fantastic.

ETA: That blackjack is sort of a different class of boat, no? purely inshore, to me.

Just pulled the trigger on one of these New 24 cc twin vee
Drafts 14 inches which is less than many of those bay boats and much more versatile in open water
Obviously you have to be willing to jump to twins but once you go cat......

We had a 2003 20 ft that we repowered- it was a great boat, fished it for 10 years
New ride should be in within next couple of weeks
