Everglades 285cc: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Everglades 285cc is a versatile center console boat measuring 30 feet 1 inch in overall length with engines, and a beam of nine feet six inches. It features a draft of 24 inches with engines raised, increasing to 35 inches when lowered. The dry weight with engines is approximately 9,200 pounds, and when fully loaded with fluids and gear, the estimated weight rises to 11,100 pounds. Fuel capacity is 200 gallons, complemented by 20 gallons of fresh water. Power is provided by twin Yamaha outboards, delivering up to 600 horsepower combined.
Power and Performance
Equipped with twin 300 horsepower Yamaha outboards, the 285cc achieves a top speed of 55.4 miles per hour. The optimal cruising speed was recorded at 3,500 RPM, where the boat maintained 30.1 miles per hour while consuming 18.4 gallons of fuel per hour. This results in a fuel efficiency of approximately 1.64 miles per gallon and a cruising range of 312 statute miles, assuming a 5% fuel reserve. The hull employs Everglades’ signature RAM-CAP construction, which integrates high-density foam blocks bonded into the hull to ensure a solid, stable ride in offshore conditions.
Testing and Validation
The 285cc underwent extensive testing and validation by Everglades personnel, including a rigorous shakedown cruise starting from the company’s headquarters in Port St. Lucie, Florida. The journey included a transit via the Okeechobee Waterway to Fort Myers, followed by a cruise to Key West and Ocean Reef, then up the east coast to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale. The boat also completed a 60-mile run to Bimini in the Bahamas to join the Everglades fleet rendezvous. Throughout these voyages, many Everglades employees used the 285cc for fishing with family and friends, providing practical feedback on its performance and comfort.
Exterior Design and Deck Features
The 285cc offers comfortable seating for up to four people in the bow area, designed to avoid crowding. The bow seats feature bolsters and backrests for added comfort. A notable cruising feature is the rotating leaning post, which swivels to create twin aft-facing seats. The helm area, protected by a hardtop and integrated glass windshield, accommodates two occupants comfortably. In the cockpit, fold-down seats in front of the transom provide relaxation options during transit to and from fishing grounds. Practical angling features include livewells located in each left corner, ample open deck space, bolsters surrounding the cockpit, and a hull-side door on the port side that enhances accessibility and versatility.
Conclusion
The Everglades 285cc exemplifies the brand’s commitment to robust construction combined with thoughtful cruising and fishing amenities. Its RAM-CAP hull ensures offshore capability, while the layout supports both active fishing and family cruising. With its proven performance and versatile design, the 285cc is well positioned to meet the demands of discerning boaters seeking a reliable and comfortable center console boat.
