The 27' to 28' Class of Center Console fishing boats sits squarely in that "mid-size" category of offshore center consoles. 30 years ago, these would have been considered the big momma jammas of the fleet, but with most boat manufacturers now offering 30 foot plus offerings (and some over 40 feet), it's found a nice niche in the middle.
At the 2023 Miami Boat Show, there was a wide range of popular mid-tier boats in this size class available including offerings from Sportsman, Cobia, Grady White, Sailfish and Robalo.
Let me know which you would pick and why.

The Sportsman's really show well in all of your posts. Sportsman has moved way up on my list. The floor under that big aft hatch is molded specifically to cradle a Seakeeper 1 - the boat has been designed for it to be installed there (low, centerline and aft of midship is the best place for gyros) . Great post as usual JJ - thanks.

I am with you in the minority, it is incredible to see a fishing boat with more seats than a theater. Maybe they only fish in the sandbars

Sportsman hands down...digital switching, one piece grid stringer system designed around the sea keeper, twin aquarium style live wells, un parraled bilge access, twin side doors, twin fuel fills, wireless phone charging,...just no comparison. The Cobia was a left over which is why it was so cheap.

Grady is way out of the ballpark here-as much as I am A Grady White fan they are just pricing themselves out of reach of most people.

@je7758 Год назад

I own 2013 25 fishermen I don’t see the craftsmanship from this boats and customer service doesn’t help

You are so correct. GW has lost THIER mind. My first and only GW was a 1995 24’ Walkaround with a. 250 Yamaha. 42k boat motor trailer. 340k is a 1% price today it might as just say 1 million . I don’t even stop in at GW area.

@gm1937 Год назад

Thanks for the overview and man those Cobia’s are nice. I’d take the Cobia over the Grady any time. Perhaps in my next life. Thanks John and greetings from Gio, Western Long Island sound.

@theGovnr1 Год назад

May I ask why you prefer Cobia over Grady? What exactly do you feel is better?

@HardSarge 7 месяцев назад

Can you do a video with a boat financial Lender and ask what income one needs to be in to afford boats in the range. Fica- down payments- annual income - with today’s rates, it will be interesting to hear. Cheers

@jiggingjerks 7 месяцев назад

Not a bad idea. I’ll see if I can line something like that up

@samuelquintana461 Год назад

Nice video. I really liked that Robalo.

@matthewskubliskas7752 Год назад

First! So sorry to hear your no longer chartering, was planning to book a trip this summer😭

@thestormrunners Год назад

Grady has officially lost their minds

@bigguydiy2184 Год назад

I think Grady prices their boat this highbecause there are new boaters dumb enough to pay it. Experienced boaters will walk away. Secondly, there are those owners who want to bragg how much they paid for a boat no matter how over priced it is.... We see this over pricing now in snowmobiling.

@David-bf9ux 10 месяцев назад

There's going to be Fishing Guides interested in that Grady ....

@davidkirksey8521 3 месяца назад

Robalo for the win

@Aroundtheblocksportfishing Год назад

I like the Cobia and came close recently but for some reason the dealer was 30k more then this show price😮 I agree the Sportsman coffin box 28 is a nice boat and seems bigger then the Cobia and nicer finished- notice the lids on Sportsman are insulated and well finished they alao make their own access panels- not the plastic ones you typically see

@lordTowle Год назад

The Cobia is really nice but, I don't think my wife would go for the forward entrance head, or maybe, we would "fight" over it. I am definitely have to consider that though. Thanks

@gerardtallarido9421 Год назад

Paid $157k for my 2020 Cobia 280cc with twin 200’s in June of 2020. Wow $204k now…. Glad I bought when I did

@jiggingjerks Год назад

I remember that year at the Miami show, the boat show special price was 150k. What is really crazy is this exact model at the Saint Petersburg show this year was 280,000.

@johnhickman2915 Год назад

Cobia 28

@SneakyPeteNJ Год назад

Wouldn't want to pay that much for a boat I couldn't lay over in. But remove the price as a consideration and it's the GW for me.

@jiggingjerks Год назад

I agree with you. You can get a nice condo on the water in Boynton beach for the money of that Grady.

@BorodenTV Год назад

I wish you got to check out the blue wave 2800 makaira. Well thought out boat. Expensive like all boats now if you option it out like I would anyway 😊.

@jiggingjerks Год назад

I have a vid on it from Stuart either last year or year before. Agree with you. And 1/2 the price of the Grady

@BorodenTV Год назад

I found that video 2 years ago. Wow sportsman 282 has gone up over 100k since then.

@derekdavis8054 Год назад

Yep I keep 300k in my closet for emergency boating...

@zackriden79 2 месяца назад

I tell you what 180 buys alot of boat in the used market I would buy a nice Donzi 30 foot ish and a nice super duty truck instead these people are going to price themselves out to business there's just not enough boaters in the 200k North budget for basic boats ?

@sapelesteve Год назад

Once again, way overpriced boats but thanks for showing us around John! 👍👍

@Driver371 Год назад

I was so excited for the robalo 270…then I got on it and tried to get in the head. Ruined it.

@wireless1235 Год назад

Cobia looks like a deal on this video comparatively. Grady is a ripoff.

@billjones3071 Год назад

These boats will be worth nothing in two years, sick prices crazy if a working man purchases ine of these ripoffs

@kenrea4884 Год назад

a lot of boat for the money for a 23ft boat with no trailer i do not count the bracket for the engines ?? 26ft Bertram new Volvos with trailer 25,000$
