1977 Blackfin

A change of plans forces sale of a newly and very nicely refit 1977 Blackfin 24 center Console. Virtually everything is new on this boat, and the next owner will not be disappointed. Blackfin boats of this vintage have a reputation as some of the most seaworthy and entirely overbuilt inboard center consoles out there. The combination of low center of gravity (due to a centrally located inboard) and the sheer mass of an entirely fiberglass hull yields a pocket battlewagon ready for when the weather turns bad. This was the Refitter's 4th blackfin 24 The hull is a Don Aronow design, with 24 degrees of deadrise.
