If you’re looking for a boat that’s perfect for arriving at your favorite fishing spot, pulling up to a sandbar, or even to be a tender to a larger yacht — then a center console may be the best option. These fishing boats boast fuel efficiency, rugged lines, sea-worthy hull designs, and interior layouts that are just enough for an overnight stay.
The most notable feature on a center console is 360-degree fishing, where you can fish on the bow, on the sides, and in the cockpit. It’s also an easy boat to take out of the water and trailer it to your next destination or tournament. Most center consoles vary in size from 35 to 55 feet and are equipped for speed, comfort, and fishing. They range in price from $150,000 to over $1 million, depending on size, amenities, and brand. Popular center console brands include Boston Whaler, Contender, Sea Force, Intrepid, Jupiter, and Hydra-Sports. We found 9 center consoles you can buy for over $1 million.
