1993 Luhrs 250 Open — 95% Restored, Tower, Nearly New Engine
I bought this boat in 2020 and spent the time and money to do it right. It's a proven offshore performer — I've run it in 6–8 ft seas off Hatteras and through Hatteras Inlet without ever feeling unsafe. The tower makes it a serious platform for Cobia, Redfish, and Striper. I have receipts for everything.
KEY FEATURES:
- Tower — elevates this boat into a true sight-fishing and offshore spotting machine, ideal for Cobia and Striper runs along the mid-Atlantic coast.
-
- Awl Craft fighting-lady-yellow hull paint — full professional repaint as part of the restoration, looks sharp and holds up.
-
- New enclosure with 40-gauge Strataglass (Maclaron front) — keeps the cockpit protected in rough conditions, a real upgrade for offshore comfort.
