30 Fisherman

She may not have the most graceful lines, but the Osprey 30 gets the job done for anglers who demand exceptional heavy-weather performance and tough-as-nails construction. Designed and built for the rigors of the Pacific Northwest, the Osprey rides on a solid fiberglass deep-V hull with moderate beam, reverse chines and an integral swim platform. If the Osprey looks a little ungainly, it’s mostly because of her high freeboard—a feature that results in a deep cockpit as well as a roomy cabin. As a fishing boat, the Osprey’s walkaround decks, enclosed pilothouse and uncluttered cockpit will appeal to cold-weather anglers. The interior is arranged with a convertible dinette and a small galley on the upper level, and a double berth below along with an enclosed head with shower. Although the cabin accommodations are well conceived and executed, the absence of a privacy door forward is notable. Additional features include heavy-duty windows, watertight cabin door, teak and holly cabin sole, in-deck fish box, transom door, and anchor locker. Offered with sterndrive or inboard power, twin 200hp Volvo diesel I/Os cruise at 28 knots (32–33 knots top).
