According to a few different dealers anyway.
Key west boats vs sea hunt. I do wish I had trim tabs and a jack plate but those can always be added later. All else equal the KW was a bit pricier and perhaps higher fit and finish when new though there are many SH fans out there. Furthermore it had a nice go slow capability about it and I knew that the Sea Hunt.
To be honest I didnt spend a tremendous amount of time here I interrupted the salesmans lunch. The Gamefish series delivers what serious fishermen demand in a center console boat. Cant stand cruising at 25 mph long distances.
They are solid boats for the money and have great customer support. I like the look of both boatshave only sea trialed the KW on a VERY rough day hereperformed quite well and got up. -250-300hp Yamaha Offshore 300 preferably If I go for a 24 boat-Want something faster with a higher cruise speed.
Looking at a Sportsman 231 a Sea Hunt 234 and now the newest Key West the 239FS. Coastal Conservation Association South Carolina. In my opinion in the mid-tier boat scene there is no better boat than a Key West.
Mako vs Aquasport vs Sea Pro. The Boats unlimited boat is a 23 sea hunt and if you check his tournament record this year you will see just how well he did. They come ready to fish with standard features such as multiple insulated fishboxes and livewells and the Gamefish 25 27 and 30 have side entry doors recessed trim tabs and hydraulic steering as standard equipment as well.
PM me if you need a contact. The Sailfish is a little better boat than the Sea Hunt but its also at least 20 more money for a new one. After the boat show I would rank them for our intended usage.
