This 2024 Everglades 285CC is in stock and available with Bluewater Yacht Sales. This boat comes powered by twin 300hp Yamaha engines, giving it a top speed of 55mph, and a 30mph cruise at 3,500 rpms.

The large cockpit is loaded with amenities, including a port side dive door, twin 25 gallon live wells, a transom fishbox, two folding seats, and 12v electric plugs. The helm seating is on a rotating pedestal to provide either mezzanine seating or padded bolsters, and the platform is full of storage for tackle and accessories.

The helm features two 16” Gamin displays, auto pilot, trim tab controls, a Yamaha Helm Master joystick, and the signature Everglades power windshield. Above, the hardtop includes 18’ Gemlux outriggers, a Garmin Radar, an 18” lightbar, and rocket launchers.

The bow is made for entertaining, with plenty of seating, including u-shaped forward seats and a console seat with a cooler beneath. In the deck, there is a 60 gallon macerated fishbox, as well a floor insert which can be removed to create a forward table or a casting platform. Other features include a through-stem anchor with a windlass, a console with a head, and remarkable mechanical access.
