2021 FSH 255 Thread

I don't love the stern of the 255 but I will say it's effective at opening up some more storage areas (the big live well) and more secure seating. The low stern of the 210 is must more in-line with a bay boat hybrid than an offshore suitable boat.

I’m surprised the white hull isn’t the e model.

We camped at Fort mcallister in early April cpuldnt find much good fishing spots out of ossabow sound. Dodnt have tons of tims to search with kids either. They enjoyed going to barrier island and walking beach though

That's funny, I was just there two weeks ago for 4 days. How many deer you shoot? Ha! Harvey's island has some good drops, hit me next time your visiting and I'll try and steer you in the right direction.

$80K seems kinda steep. Been using our AR240 for ocean fishing for a while now and I can say the jets don't handle the rough water well. My old 20' I/O did better in chop as the outdrive does a much better job keeping the boat planted. I added tabs this year which helps a lot and I think for this price they should include tabs if they want to say its for offshore fishing.

I'm hoping that this 255 hull has a more pronounced keel throughout to help with tracking.

Been using my 210 FSH for offshore for a year and a half now. Did just fine initially if I picked my days. Does even better since I put auto-levelling trim tabs on it. Agreed it would be a better deal if it came with the tabs, but in the pictures it does look like the 252/255 has a deeper v in the hull than the 210. That should help a bit.

Love this boat, but I'm cheap and would go non supercharged version

Yeah, I dont necessarily need the supercharged engines either, but the throttle synching that also comes with the E version would be nice. I'd like to see the more reliable fuel burn numbers once boattest.com gets ahold of them as well. The only burn I've seen so far is 11.1 gph for the supercharged engines that was in the yamaha video.
