Tested | Arvor 705 Sportfish with Mercury 225HP V-6

the wheelhouse is a huge win for me.

Perfect set up, the two things I don't like about this boat is the small fuel tank and the low cruise speed. An extra 100 litres and 10km/h would be perfect.

Dream fishing rig!

Great boat for camping, family days on comfortable water but I would'nt want to be in it in a bigger following sea, I don't see that hull designed for offshore heavy work.

Hi. Wondering why you think that? Looks very robust to me but I don’t know much about these things. Cheers

[@Tradesatwork]

@@jimreeves6377 hard to find deadrise in any spec but it looks to be about 16 degrees at transom. Wide beam for the lengh and a wide bow I think it would get pushed around in a following sea. It has some great accomodation for a family boat and thats defanitly it's strength.

[@richardpickersgill3434]

that's exactly what the arvor was built for, the north Atlantic sea i think, not sure about outboard version though, the the shaft drive is a weapon.

[@richardpickersgill3434]

Shame arvor went away from the shaft driven diesel. Outboard powered and they run up hill with the weight shift. The arvor design was to semiplane bringing comfot not smashing on top of the sea.

What's the cost of that boat including the trailer?

[@damomartin76]

$175,000

That has to be the ugliest boat I have ever seen.
