Broker Comments

1998 Contender Side Console (aka Express).  Designed for fisherman, divers and especially for friends and family, this boat is turnkey ready.  Divers can climb the 4 step stainless ladder, rinse with the transom fresh water shower and walk through the solid transom door into the large open cockpit.  The cockpit is designed for fishing. A 38-gallon live bait well is centered aft,  rod holders in each gunnel, 8-rod holders on the hard top and 4 mounted on the helm seat back for quick access.  The removable kill box in the deck is almost the size of a small hot tub! To port a bait station with wash-down, cutting board and deep sink.  Outriggers are currently rigged and ready to deploy.  

Stepping up the helm is located to starboard.  A full suite of Garmin electronics, MFD, depth sounder, chart plotter, radar, VHF,  Fusion stereo, trim tabs with indicators.  All instruments are thoughtfully positioned around the stainless steering wheel.  The helm seat is just wide enough for two.  Forward of the helm your friends and family can enjoy the shade riding in a lounge and L shape seating. The cushions are in very good condition.  When the weather turns nasty, continue your ride inside the Isinglass enclosure.

Going forward thru the sliding door step into the air-conditioned cabin.  To port the solid counter top galley includes a microwave, cooktop and sink and storage.  To starboard a small refrigerator, Flat screen TV, the main electric control panel and aft the head.  Forward a V berth for two, which converts into a dining area or with two bunk cushions the cabin sleeps 4.
