You YouTubers have really made the boating industry raise their game with organized, and labeled wiring, better battery installation, trolling motor battery and battery charger wiring and installation - thank you So much.

275K for a 25 ft boat with no fishing room in the stern is a dealbreaker.

Finally, a boat under 30 ft that has multiple hatches in the floor along the sides. Man I wish my 28 ft had those. I don't know why more manufacturers don't do this. However, this boat does not seem to have very much room aft for fishing. I know you wouldn't have the cooler pulled out while fishing but when you do pull it out, there is NO room back there. The station up top seems super nice. The trolling motor and swivel also, super nice.

Yeah…much like Freeman, an extra $100k+ for the name is out of touch with reality.

That wiring was a 4/10. Such an obvious little cost saver to not take the time to clean up the wiring and it just feels like a middle finger to the buyer with a boat of that cost.

Newbie for purchasing a Fishing Boat for the interecoastal waterway and may take it out in the ocean. What do y'all recommend? Share your knowledge please! I looked at a Grady White Freedom 235 today.

[steveross]

I’d want a coffin box/seat in the front since no other seating, do you need 690 hp for a 25 ft boat? Thanks for your fine videos!

[outdoors]

They should fire whoever designed that boat lol. Smallest floorspace ive ever seen for a cc of that beam 😮

[s.daniel]

Think my BW montauk 190 has more useable room.

[robertlittle]

Dont recall even seeing the upper station? And everyone is 100% correct, cockpit space is a key area on any cc. Also alot of tubing for the hardtop frame, made me dizzy, like the wiring. Not the boat for me.😢

[befmx]

@4:52, insert a Beavis and Butthead sound bite.

[Bogtog]

Those electronics are just asking to get cracked trying to get up and down that half-tower. And the cockpit space is the worst i've ever seen on a boat of this size! Everything else is nice though!

[gator-iisw]

dam bro....does that come with a tuggie

[ep]

so cramped! the livewell placement is ridiculous if you are going to also use the cooler slide as a seat. tight even for one person that isnt fishing

[basicallygoodfood]

You didn’t even have to say it. As soon as you see the wiring, disappointment. Calls into question other things. Stern was disappointing too. 300s on a 25? Not necessary.

My opinion is that doing reviews like this is a great way to showcase boats for people shopping/interested that cannot otherwise have access to all the brands. However, manufacturers are pricing themselves out of the majority of people who want a decent boat. Prices have jumped 40% in the past 5 years and when I hear youtubers like this say "what a great value" or "only $XXXX" for boats priced over $100k that offer no much more than "lower tier" high volume manufacturers, I instantly dismiss them and refuse to subscribe. I want and honest review from someone who is advocating for the common person. See the GunCollective and how he calls out brands for their bs.

[trenchlord]

Holy crap that wiring and bilge is ridiculous!

[Steve-Jody]

Thanks for the video, good review but too much money for the working class to afford.

[splintel]

Not impressed for the price tag. No fishing space. Looks like they ran out fiber glass and instead of a 33 they close it short 😂😂😂😂😂

[RYAN-fybr]

If they were smart they would have made a 25 Floridian CATAMARAN and sell the shit out of them!
