I don't care for transparent glass on boat salons. I don't care for single engines on small boats. I don't care for cleats that can't be put below gunnels. And for those reasons I won't be buying that boat.

[@cheapme1850]

Not surprised you came to the same conclusion that a lot of folks have. The Ranger Tug is first on my list with the Cutwater just a step below. I have no idea what’s going on with boat designers these days - a pull out toilet? A head you can’t stand up in? No emergency cabin egress or ventilation? When you sacrifice style for practicality, you end up with neither. Less than ten or fifteen years ago you could easily get a trailerable boat that could sleep a small family of four for a weekend, some in the 23’ to 26’ foot range. Now it seems they’re really chasing the South Florida market with the open bow concept which sacrifices cabin room AND makes the boat less seaworthy in rough water.

[@perfectfitboating]

You are spot on my friend. I still remember the days that the Florida sportsman magazine had Dusky advertising their 20ft center console with trailer and a 150hp outboard for $29,995 plus tax. You could get a walk around cabin boat in the 26’ range for under 80k. I think boat manufacturers are out of touch with the middle class consumer and are all chasing the bigger flashier market. It’s crazy!

[@stevo6123]

Great comment! Spot on. Manufacturers have leaned way into center consoles and outboards (and that “look at me” party Florida market!). Center consoles eliminate family shelter from the elements, privacy, overnighting, etc. Outboards are the power of choice for a bunch of reasons (ease of maintenance, efficiency, etc.), but chew up cockpit area (relative to LOA) and swim platforms. This video was a fun, pragmatic topic. Nicely done by the channel!

We have this boat which is a 2024 Solara S-250 Coupe. Its made by Fluid Motions and it's there high end fully loaded boat. Cruises at 30 mph all day long and max's out in the 50's. You can cook, make coffee, use TV and Stereo and use all the electricals for 3 to 4 days on the Lithium batteries. We love anchoring from the helm with the anchor camera and controls.

Hey man! That depends on your needs. We have a few other videos on overnighter boats you might want to check them out to help you make a decision. For 300k you’ll get a lot of boat🤙

[@budnic61]

So, just for something to think about. You mentioned going to Bahamas, when your going to be out in open waters from Miami to Bahamas, it’s better to have 2 engines in case one goes out for some reason, you can always use the second engine to get you back to land. Just an FYI

[@perfectfitboating]

Yeah I can see that. The problem is that most issues (with newer four strokes) isn’t a mechanical failure it’s a fuel issue. Specifically, water in fuel. And in that case it doesn’t matter if you have 1,2 or 4 engines. For the times we plan on heading it the Bahamas we can justify a second motor cost. We also only plan on crossing in groups and probably never alone. Thanks for the comment! 🤙

[@Velislide]

Multiple engine boats have multiple fuel tanks. Both engines are usually completely separate from each other. Including the electrical systems. At least mine is. @@perfectfitboating

[@perfectfitboating]

Not necessarily. Our boat originally had twin motors and just one fuel tank. And Many twin engines come with single fuel tanks. I’ve seen applications like the ones you state but maybe more so in the bigger boats that have the space for two fuel tanks. 🤙

[@2esc2esc]

I got my boat fitted with 2 completely separate fuel systems(ignition, fuel lines, tanks and batteries). Yes it cost a bit but the peace of mind when going offshore.​@@perfectfitboating

[@seikibrian8641]

The Solara 250 has a long track record. It was originally marketed as the inboard-powered Cutwater 24 (thus that huge under-deck lazarette), then evolved into the outboard-powered Cutwater 248, and now Solara has been spun off into its own subsidiary. The amount of interior room is amazing for a boat that can be trailered without an oversize load permit.

Great job sharing your thoughts on these boats. Can’t wait to see the next video. Family friendly boating.

Thanks steva! ♥️

[@OutOnTheReef]

Great video, captain now what I took from the video. Those boats require so much maintenance. Just think about it when you come back from fishing for probably 3 to 4 days spending some time in it. You'll be a slave cleaning those boats. So you can keep your value on those boats and the price Are very high. I know they have a lot of equipment but most of it. It is not needed for spending a couple of days out there. That's my opinion, captain. Maybe if you're retired , you'll be able to use that boat more often , but as young Ask you and your wife are You won't probably have the time to spend weeks in the Bahamas too often. My suggestion is keep enjoying the boat you have. Which is paid for and later. I'm moving to something a little bit more comfortable Something that doesn't break the bank. Because trust me in the past about boats and I regret purchasing them the long run but the one I have now is not big but it does the job. Even if is crooked LOL.

[@perfectfitboating]

Cap you are absolutely right. We won’t be changing boats anytime soon. And if we do decide to upgrade, it won’t be much bigger but maybe something with a better cabin like a pilot house. Youre totally right. A lot of the features on these boats aren’t totally necessary. I’m a big fan of keeping it simple. The more crap you have the more likely it is to break. And you are so right about having to clean it. Imagine coming back from a trip and having to spend 2 days cleaning all these extra things! Thanks for commenting cap! 🤙

One year and two weeks from planned retirement, I could write a check for any of the boats you featured, but it’s just too great a percentage of my net. I’ve dreamed all my life of a boat that checks all the boxes you’re covering here, but the dream will remain just that, I believe.

[@perfectfitboating]

Congrats on your retirement! We’ll give you our 2 cents. In a year from now, boat prices should be down another 20%. And that means the used boat market will be even lower. I think you can find something that fits the bill when you’re ready to retire. We think you’ll be able to live out that dream, friend! Time will tell but we’re optimistic! 🤙

[@melodymakermark]

Wow brother. 20% you think? Well, I’ve got some time to wait, but not much. I’m mechanically inclined, and could manage a good deal of repair or refurb on a used boat, but just don’t want the hassle, so for me it’s gonna be pay the new cost up front or not at all. I’ll keep my eyes open. Love the channel. Glad I came across it. Subbed.

[@perfectfitboating]

@melodymakermark I Truly believe the prices will drop significantly by the end of this year. Maybe even more than 20%. You’ll get something you’ll see. And thank you so much for the kind words and for subscribing! We appreciate you! 🤙

The 1st boat you looked at (with the 9’6 beam) requires special permits to tow it. If the beam is 8’6, no special permit is required.

[@seikibrian8641]

​@perfectfitboating Up to 8'6" no permit is required. Up to 11 feet, an oversized load permit and banner are required. Over 11 feet, a permit, banner, and pilot cars are required. That's in Washington. Other jurisdictions may vary.

You can it’s just a walk around style. It had grab rails to hold on to. It’s compromise so it had alot more space because it doesn’t have the pilot house style construction. We really liked that 29’ too though. Lots of space! Thanks for the comment! 🤙

Youre very welcome! Glad our vid was able to help! Might be better off waiting and getting a slightly used one! It’s an expensive!

[@F.JosephRoss]

We ordered a Solara S-250 C with a trailer last week. Added the downrigger prep and the Garmin radar -- the only options available other than hull color. It's somewhat similar to the Cutwater C-248 Coupe but with enhancements we like. The 12 inch Garmin display. DES steering, and auto-levelling Lenco trip tabs should make it less stressful for my wife, the Admiral, to pilot it without me (First Mate and swabbie) aboard until I retire in a few years. The kids said "spend every last dime" and we're trying to keep them happy. Most of the year it will be moored at the marina, but fair amounts will find it being trailered behind a Rugged Mountain Denali 3S on a Ram 5500 Chassis cab truck to destinations in the western US and Canada. The versatility to cruise, fish, enjoy towable watersports, and overnight camp checked all our boxes. I like being able to have a hot water shower on the swim platform as an option to using the wet shower in the head when the weather is nice or after scuba diving.

[@perfectfitboating]

Wow that’s incredible! So happy for you and your family! You’ll make amazing memories on it! We absolutely loved that model and we’re sure you will too! That big truck will have zero problems hauling that thing! Congrats on your purchase and on your upcoming retirement! Let us know when you finally get her splashed! 🤙

[@shmac96]

Its amazing how much functional, useable space and amenities boat manufacturers are and have been able to build into boats under 30ft. Im sure I may be mistaken but it looks like American boat companies have finally gotten wise and started getting creative with how they package their boats like the European and Scandinavian boat companies do. Everything from sliding and folding seats integrated either into a window or serving as a double purpose sink and grill. Its great to see. Cool video guys! Could we maybe get more of what the outside of the boat looks like, at least briefly, before you give a quick onboard walthrough? Thanks!

Nice video , We didn't make it to Miami this year . Two things that you should compare is Warranty ( get detailed information ) and Fiberglass layup . Is the hull being made with new techniques ? ( resin infusion / vacuum bagging , epoxy resin etc ) . Most manufacturers are building thinner hulls these days , Old school techniques can have issues . Check for customer reviews and overall satisfaction .

That’s very true! You know we tried to find a directory of what manufacturer was going to be at the show and they didn’t have a list anywhere. We literally went in blind.

Bayliner is a Trophy owned by Brunswick who makes aftermarket Merucury engine parts called Quicksilver. Mercury is also owned by Brunswick

[@perfectfitboating]

Correct. But in Europe, they have a quicksilver line of boats which is the trophy here in the states. It is subbed out and licensed to them.This is from their website "Quicksilver boats are manufactured in Brunswick's own factories, but for the European market several models are produced under license from Balt-Yacht shipyard, which is located in Poland."

[@tpgustaf]

The challenge with static boat shows is that you get the impression of space of the boat, but not true comfort and usability. The ridability and hull design is key to enjoyment on the ocean. I ended up buying the Axopar 28 (the predecessor to the 29 in this video) - it arrived in January. In some ways I feel that is a better version, with a separate compartment for toilet only. It can still sleep 2+2 as you can use cabin seats folded down as a flat bed. The huge win with an Axopar is the ride. It cruises 28-35 knots in comfort even with some sea. It is outstanding for water toys. It is good (but not optimised) for fishing. It is good for day boating with friends, although I would like a wider bow for socialising space. All boats have their advantages. To get on the ocean with kids/friends doing all types of activities, the Axopar won for me. 😊

[@perfectfitboating]

Thank you so much for the comment! You’re right, it’s hard to compare boats when they’re static. Ride is definitely a huge factor when it comes down to buying a boat and the actual usability when out on the water. I’d definitely recommend anyone looking to spend this amount of money on a boat to spend some time on the water with them. 🤙

I liked the second "Bayliner" better. It seemed more spacious.

I really enjoyed your video! We are currently looking for a cabin boat for our small family of 4 (2 kids under 3). Cabin is important to us because we are located in Northeast and we would like to do some boat camping in the summer. Thank you for showing and reviewing some brands that we did not even consider before. Keep up the great work!

[@perfectfitboating]

You’re so welcome! We’re happy the video was able to help! We’ll be headed to the Palm beach boat show in 2 weeks and plan on going aboard some weekender boats that weren’t at this show! Thanks for watching and commenting! 🤙

[@belzvon]

Looking forward to that video!

Quicksilver is the lubrication line for Mercury. Like moter oil, gear oil. Bayliner is owned by Brunswick Marine Group which also owns Sea Ray and other lines of boats. Also Mercury Marine.

[@perfectfitboating]

It’s not just the lubrication line for Mercury. They make boats like the quicksilver pilot house 605 that’s is the same boat as the trophy. This is from their website “Quicksilver boats are manufactured in Brunswick's own factories, but for the European market several models are produced under license from Balt-Yacht shipyard, which is located in Poland.”

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO

[@perfectfitboating]

Thank you for watching! 🌊🤙🛥️

[@wickedleeloopy2115]

Having seen the options available on trailer sized cabin cruising bosts , if you value the room you get , i would seriously concider a power cat or twin hull option

[@perfectfitboating]

Wish they had some at the show to walkthrough! They do have great space!

[@robbiefrank9127]

Have you seen the Targa line of boats?

[@perfectfitboating]

Funny you brought that up, my last comment on here was someone asking the same thing. Those are really nice boats! 🤙

[@robbiefrank9127]

Although another more pricey, I'm thinking about the Targa 37 model. Mike Porter and East Coast yachts in ME. have it and the 32 footer available in their showroom. Good luck in your search and great videos!

[@perfectfitboating]

Thank you Robbie! 🤙

Thank you Anthony! 🤙

[@KneeKrusher]

The t29x is one I hope to own.

[@TexanUSMC8089]

That first boat was cool for a day boat. I wouldn't want to sleep inside the cabin, and the head was really small. Boat two was way better. It also cost 100K more. I gave you a sub. Great video.

[@perfectfitboating]

We really loved the styling of it. And for a day boat it would be great. Just way too much money and that head is for kids.🤙

[@santaclause7676]

What half ton truck are you using that can haul that boat.

[@perfectfitboating]

We use a Tahoe. But you can use your sleigh, Santa. That pulls plenty!

[@Ognir1962]

The Axopar is by far the best boat you viewed, the quality of Axopar is far superior than the others.

[@perfectfitboating]

We loved that one a lot too! Very cool layout! 🤙

[@willtell7023]

Make Axopar demo the boat will so 60 MPH. Get a demo on that.

[@johnathandye5244]

Who has 250 to drop on a boat though? Not everyone that’s for sure.

[@dandersonjr]

I've researched this type of boat and been on a few and for me I like the Cutwater's the best.

[@perfectfitboating]

We love the cut water! It’s an awesome boat!

[@davelawrence6777]

Thr Solara cut water and ranger tug I do believe all come under the same ownership umbrella. 190 plus at least 8 or 9 for a good trailer no generator no solar means shore power for the ac a lot of money keep looking maybe in the slightly used market.

[@perfectfitboating]

Oh we were just showing the cabin style boats. We’re happy with our boat and we won’t be changing anytime soon. Youre correct they’re all under the same umbrella. 🤙

[@seikibrian8641]

"Thr Solara cut water and ranger tug I do believe all come under the same ownership umbrella." Correct: Fluid Motion, LLC.

[@perfectfitboating]

Yep that’s correct! Super nice people! Family owned!

[@PhilipRawbon-rk8uv]

Well you can go new if you want..an some are nice..but i'll stick with my 30 foot 88 Avnti..Bayliner..love it!

[@perfectfitboating]

I would never go new lol. And that’s a sweet ride you have. Plenty of space. 🤙

[@PhilipRawbon-rk8uv]

@@perfectfitboating thanks matey!

[@davidmilledge221]

If i remember the second boat is the best , loose the twin out board motors and put a single diesel out board , better fuel economy and put a decent freezer in it same size as the fridge also plumb in Propane great for the oven and stove also a cooker out back 👍its an Australian thing 🙂and its trailerable 🤘yep didn't get to see the last boat properly tho but that looks good too but needs what i said about the second one , would be great live aboards expesily for 1 or 2 people easy , will need lots off solar up top tho and a few batteries inside

[@perfectfitboating]

That was a nice one too. Diesel option would be sweet! 🤙

Did you do a segment on fishing and family out type boat 26’ and above ?

[@perfectfitboating]

We did another video on the best family boats under 60k. There was a couple good deals and some decently outfitted boats. The show huge so it was hard to film everything. We only made it to the convention center and that took all day. Between networking and filming what we filmed our day was gone. Next year im going to try and film for two days to get more footage. 🤙

[@YouTube.CHANNEL.NobleDonna.]

Очень хороший обзор.👍 Очень подробно и хорошо снято.

i love PILOT HOUSE BOATS

[@perfectfitboating]

We do too! We wish we could see more of them here in sfl. We’re gonna have to take a trip to the pnw or New England boat shows! 🤙

[@randyscott3386]

Everyone seems to like the concept of an affordable towable pilothouse cruiser so , where's Sea Ray's ?

[@perfectfitboating]

If I remember right, the sea rays at the show that would’ve fallen in this size category were bow riders and anything with a cabin was much bigger. We’re going to another boat show this month, hopefully searay has some of them there we can show! Thanks for the comment! 🤙

[@gl7011]

Warren Buffett would struggle to afford Sea Ray's. 🤑

[@Dld1985]

Bayliner , Quicksilver is all part of Brunswick Marine who also owns Searay.

[@perfectfitboating]

Bingo! That is correct! 🤙

[@Timothywartim]

I liked the bayliner trophy pilot house but I would have put a 300 hp mercury on it.❤

[@perfectfitboating]

It’s definitely a cool boat! We liked it a lot too. We’d put a 300 also. Can’t go wrong with more power! 🤙

[@1911nigel]

Oye...thats the perfect niche. We are looking for this size under 40' that we can tow with our 3500 and sleep over night. Out top contender will be cutwater cb30. Will be looking at more of your reviews. Gracias por el video🤛💪

[@perfectfitboating]

Thank you so much! The cutwater 30 is a monster! Now THAT is a boat you can spend a few weeks on if you wanted to. Top quality, great features and they’re built well. The whole ranger tug umbrella is solid! Good luck with that and thank you for the kind words! 🤙

Cutwater is really nice

[@outlaw19able]

You're looking at low end stuff when you could spend your money on something way better slightly used PLUS, that Bayliner will fall apart after a few crossing's trust me. Im finishing a 28 Albemarle outboard conversion that I will be island hopping in. I love the trustworthy Carolina built hulls that are designed for that stuff. Take your time and a "killer" deal will come around soon with this economy. Its a boat buyers dream.

[@perfectfitboating]

Hey brother thanks for the comment! We’re actually not looking to buy. We enjoy doing these videos to show people what’s available out in the market. We have a Grady 24 offshore and that’s the boat our channel was started off. We also have a 16 zebra flats skiff we’re restoring. But your advice still stands to anyone reading! 🤙

[@aprianto1985]

[@perfectfitboating]

Definitely one of the better ones! 🤙

[@michaeldillinghamthe9642]

Did you see any Sea Ray Sundancer's. The 29 foot model is trailerable and is an awesome boat.

[@perfectfitboating]

No unfortunately we didn’t. Sea Ray only had their big hitters or smaller bow riders. We’re headed to the Palm beach boat show in a week hopefully they’ll have something there we can check out! 🤙

[@alweber11]

It seems that these boats have a high center of gravity. Do you think that they will roll excessively?

[@perfectfitboating]

That’s a good question. We’ll be headed to the Palm beach boat show and we’re going to try to ride in a few of these so we’ll report back on that for sure! 🤙

[@curthook9622]

Wow the 29 Bayliner Explorer didn’t even try to hide the fact that they copied the Beneteau or Jeanneau almost exactly

[@perfectfitboating]

I’ve been on those before and they’re definitely a step above the bay liner. They tried their best to copy it but I think they fell short 🤙

[@curthook9622]

@@perfectfitboating absolutely agree. I just went on the Bayliner this weekend at a boat show and they fell short. But they copied almost everything to the letter just fell short for sure. I’m just amazed how the layout is exact. The only thing they did was swap toilet and sink in the head.

Jeanneau wasn't there? Seems like an 895 would be in the mix here.

I like the Solara 250C the most. It would put twin Yamahas on it tho....

We’re going to the Palm beach boat show in two weeks. Solara invited us to see all their models. Maybe they take us out for a spin.

Can you find smaller cruisers power catamarans?

We don’t get too many catamarans at these shows other than the Ft. Lauderdale or Miami shows. A lot of times it’s by appointment and they don’t allow random people on their boats. 🌊🤙🛥️
