256 Fish Around Cabin

1981–2009

This fish-around cabin model is unique in that its walkway is wide enough to maneuver around the boat with ease. Even anglers with size 12 shoes can turn around easily in the walkway space, making a 360° fight with a trophy fish a snap. Dusky FAC is so smooth riding that bow-seated passengers ride high and dry in comfort. (Manufacturer Provided Description) EDITOR NOTES: Inexpensive, no-frills walkaround sold factory-direct keeps offshore fishing affordable for anglers on a budget. Each has been custom-built to order, so the list of standard equipment is modest. Wide side decks mean the cabin is narrow and confining. Heavily built hull has a reputation for shouldering some rough seas. Finish has some rough edges. Good entry-level boat for budget-minded anglers. Tops out ot about 40 mph with single 225hp outboard.
