Grady-White Freedom 415

Grady-White is an industry mainstay for innovation and a superior build, and the new Freedom 415 dual console bridges the gap between a major fishing platform and a boat with luxury cruising capabilities.

“Nothing was left to chance on this new model,” says Christian Carraway, Grady-White’s product designer. “Every inch has been examined and reexamined to ensure it hits the highest marks for the serious fishing crew and those who want to cruise.”

Riding on its award-winning SeaV² hull, the Freedom 415 has a variable vee configuration that sharpens from the transom to the bow. Coupled with a high freeboard, bow flare and strakes, the results are a smooth ride, conditions permitting, at any speed. And when conditions go south? Well, it is a Grady-White, after all.

Taking its cues from the admired Canyon 456, the Freedom 415 is outfitted with the kind of upscale amenities making her quite the comfortable cruising boat as well as her formidable fishing profile. To that end, her extensive standard equipment includes a bow thruster, a Seakeeper 6 gyro stabilization system, a lit 459-quart aft insulated fishbox with overboard drain, a refrigerator/freezer with a digitally controlled thermostat, two 35-gallon raw water aft port and starboard insulated livewells, and many other amenities. Her impressive power is provided by a quartet of Yamaha XTO Offshore 450-hp outboards.

Sliding doors lead to the port console cabin and the starboard head compartment. The cabin offers a private retreat, outfitted with custom-made oak cabinets with cane inlay doors and woven seagrass cloth-covered walls, full-size aft and forward double berths, a microwave and a 24-inch TV. The starboard head console features a shower, a vanity, custom-made cabinets, a hand-hammered nickel sink and teak floors.

“Our customers have been anxiously awaiting a larger dual console model and this terrific boat over-delivers,” says Joey Weller, vice president of sales.
