Default Buewater Sportfishing Boats

Bluewater owners,please speak to fishing out of the front of a 23'er with slanting sides and no toe rail.

I was just watching a video on the Bluewater boats. If you go to http://sportfishingmag.com/video_gallery.jsp and check their video library they have a few bluewater models. It is a good video to watch.

My girlfriend has the baove and with combing pads, it is a non-issue, even for me who is used to a three-piece. They build a strong boat that rides exceptionally well, however, our experiences have shown that after the sale support is mediocre at best.

A.Hal - are you a current 2350 owner? If fishing from the bow on a drift bothers you in the boat, consider adding the coaming pads. If you're not a current owner, but are looking for a boat and fishing from the bow is a major requirement for you, Bluewater makes a 23 T, which is a different design that appeals more to guys that drift & tournament fish all around the boat. Just my .02. I don't get to go fishing in mine enough to have any gripes. Tight Lines.

I have a 2350. I don't have any problems fishing from the bow. I would have to say it is one of the best riding boats I have owned

I have no issues fishing the 2350 from the bow.
I may add combing pads but if it is a big issue for you get the 23T.
For sure it is a big 23 footer and rides real nice in rough stuff.

They are all just commercials.

True, they are commercials, but it does show a good tour of the boat.
