New Boats of 2019 Tom Spencer

The current generation of production and custom sport-fishers is more diverse than ever. The coming year will see the reintroduction of a popular brand — Cabo Yachts — as well as a slew of new boats from builders such as Titan, Scarborough, Bayliss, Jarrett Bay and many more. Large convertibles remain popular, although express and walkaround models are also well-represented. The outlook is bright indeed.

Bayliss 78

North Carolina’s Bayliss Boatworks has begun construction on Blue View, a new 78-footer built for current Bayliss owners who enjoy the options to travel, fish and entertain anywhere in the world. The exterior will include a full teak package, including aft bulkhead, toe rail, half-round, helm pod, dash and salon door among the primary highlights. Inside, the vessel will feature a four-stateroom, four-and-a-half-head layout with a reinvented master stateroom and a custom U-shaped salon sofa. All cabinets will be veneered in high-quality teak and paired with granite countertops. As with other Bayliss builds, a custom walk-in tackle closet, pantry and day head will add functionality for owners who want to travel far and fish hard. Courtesy Bayliss Boatworks

Propeller tunnels have been incorporated to reduce draft for transiting the shallow creeks and channels of the Florida Keys — the planned destination for this build.
