Good read for any fishing boat enthusiasts!
Edit: The company that owns Invincible bought Yellowfin and claims that both companies will operate separately.

We are delighted to add Yellowfin to our Warbird platform. Yellowfin is at the pinnacle of their segment both in product lineup and brand prestige,” Warbird CEO Dorton said in a statement.
Warbird said in the statement that it is now the “largest and best capitalized designer and builder of custom offshore fishing boats.”
“The Yellowfin team will remain in place at their Sarasota headquarters with Wylie Nagler as president,” Dorton said. “The Yellowfin and Invincible brands have their own personalities and design philosophies, and we intend to keep it that way.”
Warbird said it will invest in Yellowfin’s facilities, people and new-product development — the same business approach that ushered in Invincible’s success.
“At Yellowfin, we have always strived to build the best boat by using the best materials — the best hardware, the best systems,” said Nagler, who founded Yellowfin in 1998. “Joining forces with Warbird and John Dorton gives us the scale and resources of the Warbird platform without changing Yellowfin’s DNA or our relentless focus on quality.”
“By combining the resources of these two great businesses, Warbird will be able to accelerate innovation, invest in quality and customer service, expand capacity, and ensure timely deliveries to our valued customers and distributors,” Dorton said. “Our goal is to set a new bar for the premium center console segment.”

Best monohull center console lines out there IMO. Yellowfins are downright sexy

I thought this was a germans thread about the Greenjeans taking that tuna out of hopedale!

I read the thread title and thought those baws got their 200 lb. tuna back.

Wonder how much Wylie pocketed on the deal, good for him, he started from the ground up and built a world class operation in 20 years.

No cape no care amirite 
I will say not a fan of the 42 yellowfin. Cockpit is wayyyyyy too big and takes up half the damn boat. 36 and 39 are where it’s at IMO

very true
If I was going to spend that much money I would get a Sea Vee/Jupiter/Bahamas over Yellowfin just off the top of my head any day of the week. Yellowfin is the cool kids boat though.

Onslow better than all of them too for way less

Never even heard of that one. Damn good looking boats there too

The fit and finish is insane. And they are quick, efficient, dry, and have amazing live wells
Spent 2 years on a 33 and it was an awesome boat. They have a 41 as well and are currently working on a 37.
If I we’re buying a new mono hull, that’s what I would get.

YF are fine as duck....I really like the 26 hybrid.
Not sure I'd spend the money on one in the 36-42 ft range for the gulf though. Freeman would take that spot for GOM fishing.

I mean freeman’s are pretty cool, but not even close to worth the price tag.
But if I had frick you money I’d probably have one as well.

I’d get a Freeman if I could afford it.

Onslows ain’t cheap either.
It really comes down to preference. Regulators hold the gold standard in offshore fishing until you get into the catamaran space (IMO). From there Freeman, Invincible and WorldCat seem to be in a league of their own.
