Top speed was 42.5 mph at 5,800 rpm. The most fuel-efficient cruise fell at 3,500 rpm and 20.2 mph, burning 5.4 gallons per hour for 3.7 mpg and a range of 269 statute miles while holding a 10% reserve against the 80-gallon fuel capacity. At 4,000 rpm she ran 26.4 mph, and 4,500 rpm produced 31.5 mph at 9.4 gph. Trolling near 6 mph burned just 1.3 gph for 4.5 mpg. Time to plane was 4.8 seconds, with 20 mph reached in 6.4 seconds and 30 mph in 10.2 seconds. The boat is also available with larger Yamaha power, including the F250 4.2-liter V6 offshore outboard.

The ride is built on Grady-White's patented SeaV2 hull, a continuously variable deadrise design with a sharp entry forward to cut waves and a wider section aft for stability at rest, which is useful when gaffing a fish. The hull is hand-laid using fiberglass, PVC foam and metal composites with no wood, the stringer and frame system is foam-filled, and Grady reports the below-deck voids are filled with foam. Freeboard measures 38 inches forward and 28 inches aft; the cockpit is 25 inches deep aft and 34 inches forward, with 22 inches of clearance on each side of the console.

At the helm, the wheel is offset to port and tilts, leaving room for a companion to starboard. The dash accepts two nav screens, with examples rigged with a Garmin multifunction display and Garmin VHF; Grady leaves the electronics area as a blank template so buyers choose their own setup. Standard equipment includes a Fusion stereo, Bennett trim tabs, a compass, a Yamaha CL5 or CL7 engine display, a 12-volt charging plug and a padded recessed tray for phones and keys. The optional hardtop is painted rather than gel-coated and comes with a full-height scratch-resistant acrylic windshield that conforms to the top of the console, with rod holders, lifejacket storage, lighting and a lockable box overhead. A windshield wiper is among the available options.

The transom carries two swim platforms 28 inches long and 24 inches wide, a four-step telescopic reboarding ladder, an optional tow pylon and the battery switch on the console face. Forward-facing jump seats measuring 16 by 22 inches swivel forward, and the cushions flip over to form a non-skid passage to the platforms. The head compartment sits inside the console behind a 16-by-39-inch lockable door, with 4 feet 8 inches of headroom, an opening port light and a portable toilet that upgrades to a macerated pump-out with holding tank. A 10-gallon freshwater tank with transom shower, an engine flushing kit and a raw-water washdown are optional. For anglers, the leaning post option adds a lighted 25-gallon live well with a circulating plenum, three tackle drawers and four rocket launchers; gunnel and hardtop holders bring storage to roughly 16 rods. Insulated bow fish boxes of 81 and 28 quarts, plus a console-seat cooler, all drain overboard by gravity with no sump pumps, and the bow cushions lift away to expose a casting deck, with the casting platform doubling as a table on a stored leg. Grady-White ties the package together with overbuilt stainless compression latches and the Captain Grady software available for iPad and iPhone.
