Contender 25 Tournament Boats
Small but Mighty
Tournament fishing boats are known for their agile ability and excellent storage capacity, but people often think that simply because a boat is large, that it is better equipped than the smaller vessels. The Contender 25 Tournament boat is not the largest vessel on the planet, but it is among the most well-equipped tournament boat you will ever own. Contender boats have a great reputation among the boating community. Here are just a few of the impressive aspects about the Contender 25 Tournament boat.
Motors
The Contender 35 Tournament is the simple, yet sophisticated tournament fishing boat you have been waiting for. It is among the shortest and lightest of the tournament vessels and therefore there is little need for an overcomplicated motor system. The entire boat is powered by twin Yamaha 150HP 4-stroke motors enabling it to have the power needed to get you and all your gear to the fishing grounds without being overly complicated.
What are You Fishing For?
Not all boats are made for all types of fishing. The Contender 25 Tournament fishing boat is primarily made for salt water fishing tournaments therefore it is perfect for fishing for striper, triple tail, fluke, tarp, and most bottom feeding fish. The small size of the boat enables it to be towed easily on an average trailer without much fuss while going down to the fishing grounds. When you catch has been caught, it is easily placed in a variety of different holding tanks including live tanks as well as an array of different ice chests to keep your catch fresh no matter how long you are out on the water.
The Angler’s Friend
Too many fishing vessels seem to make tournament fishing an overly complicated endeavor with a lot of features aboard the boat that really have little value to the fisherman himself. Fishing is about catching the biggest and the most fish without complication. The Contender 25 Tournament boat is not an overly complicated vessel. Instead it has the essential items needed to fish with ease. The simplistic nature of the boat is most notable at the helm. The dashboard is not overly complicated yet has all of the navigation and other functions needed to enable the angler to find the best fishing grounds around. The experience is further exemplified with the ability to upgrade the dash with larger screens and more gadgets as needed. There is plenty of space, so no matter what customization options the angler needs to add, the Contender 25 Tournament will never feel crowded.
The Contender 25 Tournament further assists the fisherman because of the ability to fish from multiple areas of the boat. There are rod holders found throughout the vessel as well as a convenient area at the bow of the boat to give the fisherman the best view as well as the best leverage for catching the big one. In addition to the many rod holders, ample rod storage is available as well. On either side of the Contender 25 Tournament boat there are three rod holders to conveniently stow away the rods that are not in use and when the boat is being moved to another location. This is truly an important aspect for any tournament fisherman to ensure that their equipment remains in pristine shape.
Easy Access Points
There are times when maintenance is a must and sometimes it can be quite a battle to get to the areas that need attention. Access to the battery and the electrical functions of a vessel are often hidden away in an area that is quite difficult to get to. The designers of the Contender 25 Tournament boat have made it easy for maintenance to be performed at any time with the electrical components and battery power conveniently behind the lounger. Simply open the space behind the lounge and access every major part of the electrical system and battery compartment.
