Grady-White built their name on fishing boats and now we get a fishable yacht that does neither well. That "live well" in the transom is a waste of space and money. The live well in the leaning post has a lid that won't clear, so it blocks your access for putting live bait in. The sink is useless. Seating in the bow obstructs access to the gunnels for fishing and are useless unless you're at the dock or on a lake. Should have two of the fold-away seats like the transom. The vertical Plano box holder in the transom is useless. No rocket launchers for extra rods because dock-skippers have wives who don't like to have sundowners with friends on a "fishing" boat. 🙄 FFS it's like Grady hired a multiple personality to design the fit-out. The hull, construction and fit and finish are world class. I'm quite aware that extra rod holders can be added to the gunnels and bolted to the t-top, but for Grady-fucking-White money, you shouldn't need to because you should be able to get it in TWO different fit-outs, Offshore for FISHING and a dock-skipper version for the "I'm an 80 year old millionaire and like to look like I could go fishing" version, which is what you showed.
Love it!
