Stamas

“Once on the fishing grounds, the 317 is more than ready for action with many standard features. Dual ­locking rod lockers in the bow deck handle the arsenal overnight. There are more racks under the gunwales, plus a four-rod rocket launcher on the aft edge of the fiberglass hardtop. Thick, comfortable coaming pads provide relief during long standup fights.” –Saltwater Sportsman Magazine EDITOR NOTES: Stamas builds a rugged fishing boat, that's been true of all their boats. Standard features include a 50-gallon livewell behind the helm, foldaway rear bench seat, hardtop, pop-up cleats, electric head, and windlass. flip-up bolster seats, hydraulic trim tabs, tackle storage, and raw water washdown. Big fish can be hoisted aboard through the large transom door in the starboard corner before being deposited into one of the spacious 347-quart deck boxes. All are fully insulated and drain overboard. A second 30-gallon transom well was optional. Inboard and outboard versions were available. Twin 250hp Mercury Verado outboards power the 317 Tarpon to a top speed of 50 mph.
