Pushing boundaries.

Yellowfin has been a stand-out in the highly competitive world of offshore center console fishing boats for almost three decades now — and for good reason.

Yellowfin finds the perfect balance between its efficient sea-proven twin-step hull design and its running ability in various sea conditions, as evidenced in the 36 Offshore.

“Smooth lines from stem to stern make the Yellowfin 36 instantly recognizable from a distance, and it certainly has the performance to match those sporty looks,” says Bay Marine’s Charlie Bartosiewicz.

The 36 Offshore continues to be a mainstay in the model line-up, and with several new optional features, including forward seating, choices for the hardtop and tower, coffin box, additional livewells and a sub-console head, the boat promises to provide even more enjoyment and comfort while out on the water. The helm offers a pair of bolstered seats, space for a pair of large Garmin touchscreens and well-placed controls. The choice of twin or triple outboards maxes out at 1,350 hp.

While she can deliver hours of family fun, the 36 Offshore is a hardcore fishing machine. Just before the bow V is one of several in-deck fishboxes. Standard features include 14 Gemlux rod holders, a leaning post, hydraulic steering, spreader lights, an AmeraTrail aluminum trailer with electric-over-hydraulic braking, Livorsi trim tabs and a saltwater washdown.

“This boat was designed for the serious offshore angler but has the creature comforts to make for a great day on the water with family and friends,” Bartosiewicz adds.

You’ve seen the distinctive logo and sheerline, know about her well-built construction techniques and seakeeping abilities, and watched as one left the dock. If you are ready to take the wheel, set up a visit and get out for a sea trial.
