Yellowfin 24 Bay Boat
"IN - XS"
Also known as "Fin-Zilla by the guys
who built her at Yellowfin. We bought this boat because
of the advantage we have on the flats with this hull
design. This boat is the twin of our other Yellowfin 24
"Instigator".
The pride of Dream Catchers and Captain Steven Lamps
personal boat the "IN-XS" is black as her power
with lines of a true thoroughbred. Powered by Mercury
Racing she has plenty of get up and go with a top speed
reaching the mid seventies and a cruise of 45 mph. Dry
safe and super comfortable. She is 24 feet long of sheer
fishing joy.
Versatility
"IN-XS"
is the super
boat of bay boats. Able to float in 12 inches of water
and run out to the reef in 3 ft waves in a single day.
Great for the
All In Wonder fishing charter as she can carry
enough bait to fish all day long.
Fly fishermen love her for the low profile deck with
no obstructions. We have accomplished our first ever fly
fishing grand slam with a Yellowfin 24 on the flats. One
Permit, two Tarpon, and three Bonefish on fly in a 6
hour trip to the Marquesas Keys in the summer of 07'.
Quite a feat for a bay boat.
Tarpon fishing in the harbor is incredible as well
as a snap on the flats.
Wreck and Reef fishing is also a hoot. This boat
does it all in comfort and definitely style. Be seen on
the sexiest bay boat in Key West with a tarpon on the
line and you will feel like a GOD.
Over Equipped
"IN-XS"
has the
over board electronics package with the
brand new 5200 series from Garmin with the touch screen
navigation system. This unit also features full Doppler
radar overlay displaying sea conditions and forecasting
that can't be beat. With the weather feature also note
that the unit brings XM satellite radio
to the boat for your listening pleasure. Don't miss the
game or stock reports. With that, we also have
Sirius satellite radio as well. All that with a
400 watt factory installed Stereo. Fishing has never
been so nice.
A 75 gallon bait well in the back for
keeping bait alive and kicking all day long with a 70
gallon release well to ensure a safe release of fish
that don't meet the ice. Speaking of ice there is a 54
quart cooler with bottled water
provided for you and enough ice to keep your drinks and
lunch cold.
Dry Storage is abundant in the
Yellowfin 24 bay boat with huge access hatches forward
and a center console that opens up in to its own little
room. Guaranteed to keep your delicate items nice and
dry for the ride in case it gets damp out there.
MotorGuide
Trolling Motor is the motivation on the bow
in the shallows with a Remote control Saltwater Series
75 lb Thrust trolling motor. Your guide stands on the
console top and can see for miles down a flat looking
for your fish to cast to. Truly the Eye In The Sky.
Comfort
It goes without
saying that our boats are all equipped with Coast Guard
Safety equipment such as flares, Fire Extinguishers and
Life Jackets updated and inspected monthly. Each boat
also has it's own fishing licenses and Insurance.
The Yellowfin 24 has two three
seating areas. In front of the console a nice molded
seat with lots of back support for nice cruising and
great visibility out to the fishing grounds. When things
get a bit sloppy nothing beats the back seat, complete
with hand rails and back support, this spot cuts wind
and water offering a great comfortable ride. The third
spot is right next to the captain on the leaning post
complete with hand rail and good conversation.
For Fishing the deck is big enough for a game of volley
bal. not a big step up to the deck and super stable once
you get there. a nice toe rail tells you where the deck
ends and keeps fly line tamed and managed with no
obstructions.
