The Grady-White Chesapeake 290 is a rugged, quality-built walkaround with a deep cockpit and functional cabin-a serious sportfishing machine loaded with luxury-class amenities. Nobody builds a better walkaround boat than Grady-White-the cockpits are always laid out with everything within easy reach, and deep walkways around the cabin provide secure 360-degree fishability. Standard features include a hardtop with radio box, 35-gallon above deck livewell, foldaway transom seat, tackle storage (under helm seat), insulated fish boxes (2), cockpit storage boxes with cushions, cockpit bolsters, raw-water washdown, anchor locker, cockpit shower, cutting board, trim tabs, gunnel rod holders (4), rod storage racks, tilt steering, and transom door. Below deck, the Chesapeake's well-finished cabin with teak and holly floor, full-feature galley with microwave, cherrywood table, and enclosed head/shower sleeps two. No lightweight compared with similar boats in this class, twin Yamaha 250 outboards deliver a top speed in the neighborhood of 40 knots.
"Muffin 2" has been maintained to a very high standard and literally needs nothing to finish up the season. She is currently in her slip at New Bedford Yacht Club in South Dartmouth. Clean is an understatement! TACO outriggers, custom light bar, AC, Garmin electronics, autopilot, bow thruster, windlass, underwater lighting, full enclosure, and this boat has never been fished!
Muffin 2 is ready to finish up the summer!
