New 72′ Bayliss "Old Reliable"-The Cockpit Continued

Part 5 of 13: Legendary angler and owner Nick Smith continues his tour of the cockpit and shows us the storage capacity of the lazarette and custom fly console, aka Soda Bar. Lazarette access on the Old Reliable reveals electronic steering.
Old Reliable splashed in July of 2021. The customized craft was purpose built for chasing billfish on fly and recently prepped for a multi-year Pacific tour.
And the day before Old Reliable shipped out, Nick Smith and Capt. Chip Shafer provided InTheBite with a guided walk-through to talk about the boat’s personal touches and offshore capabilities. It is rare to see a boat so personally customized for one goal and that is chasing and catching billfish on fly.
