TRAILER SOLD SEPARATE THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION MAY NOT REPRESENT THE EXACT UNIT DISPLAYED
The 2026 Shearwater 270 Carolina SS Open Bow is a masterclass in hybrid design, engineered for those who demand the agility of a flats boat but require the offshore capabilities of a serious center console. Known for its distinct Carolina flare, this vessel delivers a dry, stable ride even when conditions get sporty.
Whether you are chasing redfish in the shallows or running offshore for pelagics, the 270 SS is designed to perform with precision, luxury, and "big water" confidence.
Core Performance & Design
Built on a high-performance, Kevlar-reinforced hull, the 270 Carolina SS is as durable as it is fast. Its design bridges the gap between a technical bay boat and an offshore fishing machine.
Length Overall: 26' 10"
Beam: 8' 8"
Fuel Capacity: 129 Gallons
Engine Options: Capable of running single or twin outboards (up to 700 HP total), allowing for blistering top speeds and excellent fuel efficiency.
Ride Quality: The signature Carolina bow flare provides a dry, smooth ride by effectively shedding spray, ensuring passenger comfort during long runs across open water.
Tournament-Grade Fishing Features
The 270 SS is a predator's platform, outfitted with everything needed for a successful day on the water:
Livewell System: Equipped with four tournament-ready livewells featuring high-speed pickups and a recirculating aeration system.
Rod Storage: Extensive under-gunnel rod storage, multiple flush-mount stainless steel rod holders, and overhead storage options.
Angling Tech: Designed for serious electronics packages, with ample dash space for dual large-format multifunction displays (MFDs) and integrated sonar/navigation transducers.
Shallow Water Capability: Compatible with dual shallow-water anchoring systems (Power Poles) for precise positioning in the flats.
Family & Comfort Amenities
Despite its professional fishing pedigree, the "Open Bow" configuration ensures the boat is equally adept at hosting family and friends.
Seating: Features plush, upgraded upholstery throughout, including a comfortable bow seating area with backrests that can be converted into a casting platform when it's time to fish.
Helm Comfort: The baitwell-integrated leaning post provides ergonomic helm seating with flip-up bolsters and folding armrests, ensuring comfort during long transits.
Head Compartment: A spacious in-console head provides necessary privacy and convenience for full-day excursions.
Entertainment: Comes standard with a premium audio system (e.g., JL Audio Media Master) and LED courtesy lighting to elevate sunset cruises or sandbar hangs.
