Production model
Fisherman 257
Built by Grady-White
A center console from Grady-White's Fisherman line, the largest Fisherman center console, with the beam and freeboard for running well out. Open deck, console amidships, fishing fitout throughout: livewell, rod storage, insulated boxes and a working layout rather than a social one.
Built in Greenville, North Carolina on the SeaV2 hull, a continuously variable deadrise that stays sharp forward to cut a chop and flattens aft for stability at rest. Grady-White has been outboard-only for decades, and the boats hold their value accordingly.

Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
