Bluewater 2850: A Tough Boat & Smooth Ride (8)

At 31' overall, the 2850 thrives offshore and features a wide 9'5" beam that makes her an exceptionally stable fishing platform even in the roughest conditions. Innovative weight distribution permits the console to be farther forward than most other center console designs, for the biggest fishing co*ckpit you'll find among boats of similar length. With a 24-degree deep vee hull, reverse chines, the safety of high gunwales and Bluewater's famously flat, smooth ride in all conditions, the 2850 will get you to the farthest fishing grounds and back quickly and comfortably.

Along with great passenger and storage capacity, this boat is packed with all the features you're looking for in a serious offshore fishing machine, with many options to customize your boat to your exact needs. For fishing, diving or just cruising with the family, think of the 2850 as your first-class ticket to fun on the water.
