After time well spent analyzing owner input and industry trends, and bringing Stephen Matthews of Ocean Designs LLC onboard, Mag Bay introduces its 43CC, the company’s largest center console to date.

“Reed Yacht Sales is very proud to represent Mag Bay Yachts here in the Great Lakes. Our history with the Howarth family goes back to our days as a Cabo Yacht dealer,” says Brent Reed, president of Reed Yacht Sales. “When we heard about their new company Mag Bay Yachts, we jumped at the opportunity to represent them.”

Running on Matthews’ patented cross-step hull and powered by standard quad Mercury Verado 400-hp V6s, or optional triple engine Verado 600-hp V12s or four Mercury Racing 450-hp V8s, your time out on the water is sure to be as exciting as you would expect from this builder. And with a standard Seakeeper 3 gyro and relaxed seating all around, comfort comes built in.

Quality construction has always been an integral part of Mag Bay, and with the 43CC, the approach to safety and excellence includes using the best materials and expert craftspeople. To that end, the boat features 100% vinylester resin construction, Gurit cored hullsides, a solid fiberglass bottom, unibody transom, triple reinforced hull-deck-liner joint throughout the entire boat and, for added strength, a fiberglass molded stringer grid system. F

ishing amenities include a pair of in-deck fishboxes forward and two additional insulated cockpit fishboxes, all with macerator pumps. A host of optional equipment abounds, such as Gemlux outrigger bases, carbon outriggers and holders, air conditioning and hardtop electric teaser reels.

“We knew immediately they would be building the highest quality yachts on the market. The 43CC is the perfect fishing or cruising boat for our Great Lakes market,” Reed adds.
