This Represents a Rare Opportunity to Own an Exceptional Example of the Well Regarded 31' Contender Open Center Console that is in Mint Condition, Has Been Well Maintained, Not Fished to Death and Only Has 775 Original Hours on the Hull & Engines!
A proven tournament winner, the Contender 31 Open is a brawny, top-quality fisherman whose meticulous finish and high-performance capabilities placed her in the forefront of large center console fishing machines. The high-tech hull is vacuum bagged and cored above the waterline with wide reverse chines and two lifting strakes per side to provide a dry ride. A single level cockpit makes the Contender an easier boat to move around than those center consoles with larger consoles. Features include an integrated dive platform with ladder, two 40-gallon live-wells, transom door, deluxe leaning post with rod holders and tackle center, in-deck fish boxes (two fully lined 400-qt. boxes forward, two 225-qt. boxes aft), recessed bow rails, raw-water washdown, gunnel rod holders, cockpit rod storage, recessed trim tabs, walk in console with marine head, cockpit bolsters and an anchor locker. A fast ride in the most challenging conditions, the Contender 31 will reach over 45 knots top with twin 250hp Yamaha outboards.
