2026 Everglades 285 Center ConsoleSold

For the serious angler who also loves to entertain, the Everglades 285CC is the perfect vessel for a day of fun on the water. This boat is built to be unsinkable and features a single-level cockpit floor with 360-degree gunwale access, making it easy to move around while reeling in your next big catch. With multiple insulated fish boxes, including a 60-gallon in-deck forward fish box with a macerator pump out and a 35-gallon transom fish box, you'll have plenty of space to store your haul. The boat also comes with a circulating livewell with a light and clear acrylic lid.

Beyond fishing, this vessel is built for a great time. The cushioned bow seating with removable backrests and armrests is perfect for lounging in the sun. The bow casting platform transforms into a sun pad with a filler cushion and even a table with a pedestal for on-the-water dining. With an integrated swim platform and a telescoping ladder, jumping in for a swim has never been easier. The boat also features a premium audio package to keep the good times rolling. This boat is the perfect blend of serious fishing utility and social comfort.
