2003 Goldline 26 Highsides Pilothouse — custom-built for serious single-handed fishing, now available at $49,000 (hull and equipment only; motors available separately for $87,000 total).
I built this boat out specifically for single-handed operation and commercial-capable fishing. The composite construction has no wood anywhere in the hull, which means no rot concerns and a solid, long-lasting structure. The 177-gallon epoxy tar-coated centerline fuel tank was replaced in 2017. With the twin 200 HP Suzuki 4-strokes (not included at the base price), she tops out at 47 mph and averages 2.3 MPG at cruise — excellent range for a 26-footer. All service and updates have been done professionally.
KEY FEATURES:
