Description
2018 Contender 25 Bay – Yamaha F300 – Sport Trail Trailer
The Contender 25 Bay combines the brand’s offshore heritage with shallow-water capability. The layout favors open deck space and fishing functionality rather than heavy seating arrangements, making it a practical platform for anglers who prioritize fishability and simple systems.
This example is powered by a Yamaha F300 with approximately 450 hours and includes a Sport Trail trailer. It is equipped with several upgrades that expand its fishability and positioning control.
Best Suited For
Anglers who:
fish bays, backcountry, and nearshore structure regularly
want Contender construction and ride characteristics in a shallow-water platform
prefer an open fishing layout rather than a seating-focused bay boat
Layout & Construction
The 25 Bay follows Contender’s traditional design philosophy: open working space, straightforward systems, and durable construction intended for frequent use. Raised casting platforms forward and aft allow anglers to work fish from multiple positions while storage is arranged to keep the cockpit clear during active fishing.
Helm & Operation
The helm is arranged for standing operation with clear visibility across the bow when navigating shallow water. Controls and electronics are positioned within easy reach, allowing the operator to manage the boat comfortably during longer runs between fishing areas.
Single-engine power keeps the boat simple to operate while still capable of coastal runs when conditions allow.
