If you qualify as a truly hard-core offshore fisherman, you won’t find a more complete, better-designed fishing platform than this Contender. Two above-deck livewells in the transom augment another in the cockpit sole. Huge in-deck fish boxes outboard on both sides can handle numerous large tuna. Unlike many performance boats that simply add fishing features to an offshore racing hull, Contender makes boats for fishing – then they make them fast. You can expect this Contender to be far more stable in a beam-sea drift, for example, than a performance-cum-fishing boat. I can’t imagine a more capable fishing platform than this 36.
