2017 Eastern Boats 200 Center Console

There are few boats more versatile than this well-designed 202 center console. With a 76 beam, she offers significant interior space and carrying capacity, but she still performs well with an economical 90-hp engine and trailers easily behind a mid-sized tow vehicle. Note in her performance profile how her round chine, flat planing surface, and keel give her efficient performance at a wide range of useful speeds in the teens and twenties, with enough top-end power for tubing and skiing. Her proud, flared bow and sharp forefoot allow her to cleave choppy seas and shoulder them aside easily.

The 200CC has launched the careers of many New England commercial lobster fishers, but shes equally at home with a family aboard, taking advantage of the forward console and bow seating (with storage under) and the comfortable double-wide leaning post at the helm (which can hold a cooler beneath). Need to protect little ones or cargo from flying spray? Add a folding bow dodger.

The console offers plenty of space for fishing/navigation electronics with connected VHF radio. For serious fishing, add pop-up cleats, under-gunwale rod racks, in-gunwale holders, a livewell, and tackle storage. The 200 CC is easy to fit out for your own specific uses, and her classic Yankee good looks will turn heads wherever you take her.
