You’ve picked the right brand, now you need to pick which model you want! We made it easy by separating models into series (Open, Heritage, and Masters). We’re going to go through each series to help you decide which boat is the best for you and your crew!

OPEN SERIES

We are starting with the Open series. This series contains our flagship model, the Open 352 Center Console. The Open series is made for the more serious angler and performs well as an offshore fishing vessel. This boat also functions as a family friendly boat offering all of the creature comforts your family may enjoy. The open bow layout, console seats, fishing features make this boat one you can’t miss out on. This series also holds the option on some models for a second station which makes for more versatile boating and spot fishing. If you want a boat that will keep you comfortable, take you where the fish are, and provide a place to cruise for the whole family, the Open series is where you should go!

HERITAGE SERIES

The Heritage series is our next line. The Heritage 261 was designed to be the ultimate family boat, the Heritage 231 followed after with a very similar design. The Heritage was made to be a prime setup for long sandbar days. The edge to edge rear bench seat, rotating captains chairs, rear anchor locker, and sandbar cooler, are just a few of the features that will make this boat hard to compare to others. If your family spends hours cursing around the waterway or hangs out for long days on the sandbar, this boat is for you.

MASTERS SERIES

Our last series rounding up the lineup is the Masters series. This is our “Bay Boat” series, perfect for both family outings and long fishing days. This is a favorite in the low country of South Carolina for its skinny ability to get in some of our marsh flats. A true inshore fishing vessel that is also versatile enough to take offshore on calm days. The option of the OE (open edition) is a secondary layout, with the same hull. The OE often can be seen as a hybrid style boat with more freeboard all the way around for better stability when fishing the bow offshore and a great coffin box seat on the forward side of the console. The non-OE has the standard console bench seat and a larger bow deck with in-deck storage space. Overall, this is a versatile vessel that can take you anywhere.

We hope you found which series is perfect for you. Continue to check out or website, YouTube, and other social channels to get a full idea of what we have to offer across the board!
