Captain Chris’s pride and joy, “Manolin” is a semi-custom built 24 ft Center Console made Pair Customs in Washington, NC. In our opinion, it is the perfect boat to fish our home waters surrounding the Merrimack River. She offers a fast (top speed of 42 mph, cruise at 30 mph), dry, and extremely comfortable ride. The deck space and lay out, along with engine bracket, gives anglers more room than any boat in its class. Her sharp bow entry eats through the chop, but then tapers to a shallow deadrise providing unmatched stability when drifting or on anchor. Outfitted with 2 large livewells, 27 rod holders, tackle storage, dry storage, 4 below deck fish boxes, a YETI cooler, and plenty of seating, she is designed to be fished hard without sacrificing comfort. She is also outfitted with the proper safety equipment and first aid kits, should an emergency arise.

For electronics, we have state of the art Humminbird products. With dual 10” Gen 2 Solix MEGA SI/DI fish finder units, we have a distinct advantage of seeing fish not only under our boat in full Chirp Sonar, but also 200 ft in each direction out to the sides. It is practically unfair to the fish! The Humminbird RADAR is for safety when leaving the harbor before the sun comes up or when a thick fog bank rolls in. The Humminbird Auto Pilot gets us to our spot more efficiently. For fishing, nothing can describe how important the Minn Kota Ulterra trolling motor has been for Manolin.
