They are fiberglass

Sea Hunt specializes in affordable fiberglass boats. The company has seen substantial growth, so much that it has been dubbed the fastest growing fiberglass boat lineup in America CMI awards have been received for 4 years in a row. The company is well established and has proven to provide quality fiberglass vessels. Boaters should be aware that as the boats are fiberglass, there is a higher risk of damage occurring to the hull over Kevlar hulls of other brands.  Sea Hunt is not SeaHunter. Those new to boat buying should keep this in mind. Sea Hunt specializes in the fiberglass boats while SeaHunter (a completely different company) focuses on Kevlar “indestructible” boats.

Features of the Sea Hunt Ultra Series Boats for sale

There are a few on the transom and some at the bow, but the 360 configuration that is typical on angler boast is not present. The T-top does feature 4 rocket rod holders, so it is not that you do not have space to put the rods, but that you are limited to the where you can place your rods. Anglers can opt for fishing packages and upgrades.

When testing the ride, reviewers stated that the lightweight design of the boats, combined with the power and the hull design allowed for quick launches. Getting from dead stops to planes takes a few seconds. There is a bit of a bow rise that may be offsetting to some who are accustom to flat riding vessels, and there is a blind spot as well. Test the boat before going full throttle as these navigational issues will need to be addressed.
