She might not be the newest Contender built, but I promise you she is the baddest and a proven tournament winner. This was the second 39ST gap tower boat ever built and one of the first in the sailfish tournament circuit. The build was well thought out and designed by arguably one of the best captains and owners in the industry. First time this boat has ever been up for sale and you will "Never" find the same boat again. Some of the best captains, mates, and anglers in the fishing and spearfishing world have fished this beauty over the last 11 years. Her history, appearance, and meticulous maintenance schedule speak volumes about this turn key tournament vessel and therefore in my opinion...she sells herself.
