I am thinking about upgrading my boat. We have been spending more time out to the Ross and a few other bottom spots. Liking it a lot more than inshore. Really looking hard at the pioneer 222 sf but I can’t find one used and the 65-70 price range is a little above the budget with the 3rd baby on the way. What other boat do you guys like or find comparable that will get us a little farther off shore or at least off shore on more days than my bay boat. Something that would even let us possibly lead into a little trolling on the right days.
Would like I stay under 50k and don’t want something older than 2010-2011. Preferably newer. Doesn’t have to have twins, I am ok with a single. Thanks gentlemen.

Check out Key West, Scout and the Sea Hunt lines in that range. Good luck!

Got a sea hunt now, have looked at a few tritons. Am I correct their dead rose is 18 vs 20 on the pioneer?

Not real interested in a key west. Anyone own a cobia in that range?

Love my tidewater 23 CC adventurer… She’s good on decent days to get you as far offshore as you care to go and am comfortable in her if it kicks up some. Best part with the single 250 yamaha am getting almost 4mpg at 3200 rpm 23-27 cruise speed. Should be able to pick up an almost new one for under 60k depending on options
Thanks surf fisher I will definitely take a look at those. I looked hard at their bay boat before I ended up with my sea hunt.

Age doesn’t matter so much if you buy a quality rig. Check out a used regulator. I bought a used express and wouldn’t trade it for anything but if I was going get a cc it would be a 26 regulator.

Edgewater 245cc all the way. You’ll put the rest of these boys to shame.
