78' Buddy Davis 78 Sportfish Sports Fishing Boats

WALKTHROUGH

The cockpit and raised mezzanine area on board ââ?¬Å?EPICââ?¬ï¿½ is large and impressively laid out.  It has features that lend itself well to both the tournament fisherman and the cruising family.  These features include:

• Large fishing cockpit with  painted non skid 
• Murray brothers fighting chair with offset pedestal, 4 rod rocket launcher back with bait prep tray, 2 drink holders and a small tackle drawer
• Teak covering boards
• Stern fish box
• Livewell
• Refrigerated drink box
• Oversized tuna door
• Rod storage under gunwales

Three small steps up from the cockpit brings you to the mezzanine area. This raised perch offers a great view of the cockpit and fishing activities.  It also doubles a nice spot to hang while underway and a dockside social area.  Other highlights include:

• Molded seating to port with a large freezer underneath
• Fresh water misting system to stay cool
• Day head to stbd
• Aft deck control station
• Custom aluminum safety rails with three rod holders on either side
• Engine room access under the stairs
• Accent lighting
• Music speakers
• Cockpit camera
• High gloss teak door 

Standing on the mezzanine you enter the main salon through the brand new high gloss teak door.  This main level incorporates the salon, galley, and dinette in a familiar, social, sportfish layout.  Immediately upon entering there is a set of spiral stairs that lead up to the weather protected, climate controlled enclosed flybridge.  To port is an L shaped sofa with storage underneath and a hi/lo coffee table.  The sole is sculpted carpet with a runner on top.  The woodwork is impressively done in satin finished teak.

There are AV components and storage in the starboard side cabinets with a large flatscreen TV.  After the current owner purchased her, all of the countertops were updated to granite and some other customizations ordered.  A custom athwartships bar top was added just below the galley countertops on the salon side.  This has additional storage cabinets underneath and two custom bar stools.

One small step up leads us to the dinette and galley.  The sole of this area is now a high gloss teak and holly. To port, enclosed in a teak cabinet with granite top is a Scottsman ice maker. Just fwd of that to port is a L shaped dinette and granite table top.

To starboard is a galley equipped to satisfy the hungriest of fishing crews.                                                  Her features include:

• Custom granite countertop with a sea edge
• 5 burner GE ceramic cook top
• Dual basin stainless steel sink
• Wine chiller
• Sub zero fridge and freezer drawers
• Whirlpool trash compactor
• Whirlpool microwave convection oven
• Excellent storage including large cabinet for pots and pans

Just forward of the galley is a large multi-purpose room that doubles as a huge walk in storage room and a crew stateroom.  She is outfitted with:

• Oversize stand up freezer
• Combo washer/Dryer
• Second wine chiller
• Breaker panel
• Storage drawers
• Bunk Beds
• Hanging locker
• Flat screen TV, DVD and SAT receiver
• Air conditioning

All the way forward on the port side of the main deck is a stairwell that descends to the lower accommodations.  Once below the wood tone changes to a lighter tone honey maple with burlewood trim and drawer faces.  It is a nice contrast to the darker teak up top and gives it a more open spacious feel.  The four stateroom four head layout is well done.
