Описание: 15 Old Pilothouse Boats Built for the Worst Offshore Weather | Best Fishing Boats Ranked

The wind turns northwest, the rain hits the glass, and you’re 25 miles out. Which old pilothouse boat would you want under you? We count down 15 classic pilothouse fishing boats built for rough offshore weather, from trailerable hardtops to Downeast workboats and Pacific Northwest legends.

This fishing boat review compares the hull designs that matter most in rough water:

Deep-V vs. modified-V vs. flat-bottom hulls
Full keels, skegs and protected running gear
Reverse chines for following seas
Enclosed helms, visibility and crew comfort on long runs

Two boats near the top of the list take opposite approaches to rough seas: the Parker 2520 is built for head seas, and the Radon 26 is built for running home in a following sea. Number one isn’t the deepest V, the biggest hull or the most famous name.

14. C-Dory 25 Cruiser
13. Steiger Craft 255 Miami
