Why Choose a Sportsfish Yacht?

Avid fishermen, anglers and fishing enthusiasts should consider a sportsfish yacht if that is the sole purpose of the vessel. Whether it will be used for recreational fishing activities with your family and friends or world-class fishing tournaments for big prizes and bigger accolades, if you plan to be on the water exclusively to drop a line, a sportsfish yacht is the way to go.

Sportsfish yachts are outfitted with all the amenities needed for fishing, from outriggers and towers to live wells and fighting chairs, fish lockers and freezers and, of course, copious rod holders. But these yachts aren’t all fishing and no-frills. Depending on the size, many sportsfish yachts also feature main salons, galleys, staterooms and all of the amenities found on a motor yacht, with the added bonus of the fishing kit.

Sportsfish yachts are sometimes owned in tandem with larger motor yachts or superyachts as an added amenity, with the sole purpose of casting a line and reeling in the big one.

Description

The evolution of the sportfishing yacht has changed significantly over the past few decades, not just from the materials used in the hull, or the advancement in construction techniques, but from its true capabilities. Anglers move up from center-consoles to larger sportfishing yachts for several reasons, but the main one is that you can simply fish farther out and for longer periods of time. All sportfishing yachts were once entirely made of wood, and while some custom sport fishing boat manufacturers still build wooden boats, the vast majority of sportfishing yachts sold today use a high-quality composite that is resin-infused for maximum durability and performance. Hulls are larger, lighter, and stronger which means today's sport fishing boat can go faster and fit more on it. Many of the Viking Yachts or Hatteras Yachts today feature 3 to 4 staterooms, each with their own head along with oversized salons, enclosed bridges, flybridges, and more creature comforts to make your time on the water more enjoyable. The most popular style of sport fishing boat today has to be the Convertible Sportfish due to its versatility of having the open bridge, along with the amenities of a motor yacht .

There are thousands of yachts available on the United website through our MLS services, many of which are sportfishing boats. There are many different brands, styles, features, and capabilities of both custom and production sportfish sold today, and the team at United has years of experience both selling sportfish and working with the manufacturers on new builds. Our brokers will share with you what they think is the best sport fishing boat available on the market. Let the United team help you in your search to find the perfect sportfishing boat, call our main office today at (772) 463-3131. United is also a dealer for new Hatteras Yachts and Cabo Yachts .

SPEAK TO A SALES PROFESSIONAL

The improvements in construction and added space have paved the way for larger, more powerful engines to be used in sportfishing yachts. Whether tournament-fishing or just a weekend warrior, getting to the fishing grounds quickly is imperative. Today's sportfish boats can cruise anywhere from 20 to 30 knots and exceed speeds of 50 knots with big twin diesel engines. How fast a sportfishing boat can go depends on several factors include engine horsepower, hull shape, the construction of the vessel, and the weight of the entire boat.

It's the amenities on board though that generally appeal to the owner who likes to fish with his family. Comfortable, air-conditioned salons, full galley's with lots of storage for extended trips, hot showers in en suite bathrooms can make any extended fishing trip more enjoyable with kids on board especially.

Sportfishing yachts are typically boats 50ft and over that are purpose-designed and built for offshore fishing in tournaments such as the Atlantic Ocean White Marlin Open of Ocean City, MD—the world’s largest billfish tournament with a multi-million-dollar payout, or for the adventure of chasing pelagic gamefish in remote spots around the world. Kona-Hawaii (Pacific Blue Marlin), Isla Mujeres-Mexico (Sailfish), New Zealand (Striped Marlin), Great Barrier Reef-Australia (Giant Black Marlin), along with Costa Rica, Belize, Honduras, Guatemala, are among the finest gamefish destinations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sportfishing Boats:

What type of yacht is best for fishing?

Although one can cast or drop a line from just about any boat, for the serious sport and tournament fisherman, a vessel designed from the ground up for the rigors of offshore fishing in many conditions and often customized to the owner’s wishes, are the best choice. There are many variations of the two basic types of sportfish boats—the Express Sportfish and the Flybridge/Convertible Sportfish. The Flybridge Sportfish boats (45ft and under) are not technically Convertibles, but distinctions are blurred as they are often marketed as such. Express Sportfish models have two decks, the main deck with helm and cockpit, accommodations below deck and tend to be smaller.

Most likely it will have a tower, but no flybridge. Examples are the Gamefisherman 50 Express, Huckins 45 Sportfisherman, Cabo Express SF. All feature large cockpits that are uncluttered and set up for fishing action and may include in-deck fish boxes, livewells, rod holders, ice machine, fighting chair, aft steering, transom “tuna” doors, tackle storage and more. Many have towers with their own steering stations, outriggers, rocket launcher rod holders, and other features. Convertible Sportfisherman are larger and most often completely custom world-class yachts for tournament and long-range fishing adventures. Examples are Michael Rybovich & Sons sportfishing yachts, Hatteras GT series, Viking Convertibles, Jim Smith, Merritt, F&S, Bertram, Custom Carolina, and many more.

What is a Convertible Sportfishing boat?

Convertible Sportfish Yachts are typically 50ft or more with enclosed living area on the main deck and a flybridge with hard top or fully enclosed, in addition to accommodations below deck, and a large cockpit with a mezzanine deck with seating for guests to watch and enjoy the action. These yachts are often a custom build that combines the luxurious amenities of a motor yacht with the proven performance hull of a sportfisher, capable of converting to a cruising yacht, if desired. They will usually have a tower for spotting gamefish and utilize the latest technological advantages and fish-finding electronics, such as Furuno’s real-time 360-degree sonar systems, Seakeeper stabilizers, pod drives, powerful diesel engines and gensets, and much more. Convertible Sportfishers are evaluated on their seakeeping ability, stability and efficiency in speed and economy. Handling and performance underway or in fishing mode are vital, as they must be able to handle all types of conditions; many have redundant systems. The cockpit needs to be well arranged for anglers and crew to do battle with big trophy gamefish!

How much does a Sportfishing Yacht cost?

How much are you willing to spend? There are too many variables with the vast array of manufacturers and builders of Sportfishing Yachts to put a single price out there. Currently the average cost to purchase a Sportfishing Yacht over 40ft in the Southeast Region of the United States is about $815,500. Sportfishing yachts tend to cost more than a cruising motor yacht of the same length because of the additional specialized equipment, electronics, and build features, especially for a custom sportfish. Convertible sportfishing yachts have both the luxury accommodations of a motor yacht and the specialized features of a high-end “fishing machine.” When considering the cost of ownership, as with any vessel, be sure to factor in dockage/storage, insurance, maintenance, fuel and other running costs, captain and crew salaries (if needed), taxes & fees, and more.

Some well-known Sportfish builders are as follows: Albemarle, American Custom Yachts (acquired by Willis Marine Inc in July 2021), BB Boats (especially built for charter use), Bertram Yacht, Bayliss Boatworks, Briggs Boatworks (Sunny Briggs), Cabo Yachts, Davis Yachts, F&S Boatworks, Gamefisherman, Garlington Landeweer, Hatteras Yachts, Henriques Yachts, Jarrett Bay, Jim Smith Boats, Paul Mann Custom Boats (retired 2021), Maverick Yachts (designed by Erwin Gerard, EG Designs and built in Costa Rica), Merritt’s Boat and Engine Works, Ritchie Howell Custom Boats, Roscioli Donzi Intl., Michael Rybovich and Sons, Scarborough Boatworks, Spencer Yachts, Viking Yachts, Weaver Boat Works, Willis Marine (just acquired ACY in Stuart, FL), Winter Custom Yachts, and new custom builder in St Augustine, FL, Vilano Boatworks--introducing a 65ft sportfish designed by noted naval architect, Erwin Gerard.

BIG BLUE Boat for Sale

45' rybovich | 1967 | $490,000.

  • Yachts for sale

Last updated Mar 21, 2024

Big Blue Boat | 45' Rybovich 1967

Presented for sale by Capt Bob Bingham and Capt Dave Kellerman Jr with Bingham Yacht Sales & Restoration. Big Blue - Rybovich is hull number 67, and the last plank on frame boat built by Tommy Rybovich in 1967.  She is 45 feet in length and was originally commissioned as the Ole. Boasting unmistakeable lines, Big Blue's pedigree remains unparalleled. Her heritage alone, speaks volumes but her current turn-key go anywhere condition makes her even more special. The Rybovich family builds boats with the intent that they are meant to do much more than sit at the dock. Big Blue continues to live up to her those intentions.With that said, she is an absolute head turner whether she is tied to the dock or underway. She has been well cared for by knowledgable owners with an open check book one the years and it?s easy to see when you look at her. She underwent a no expense spared refit in 2014 that included a pair of QSB Cummins 550's, ZF gears, and all new running gear. Most recently, she underwent another cosmetic refit in 2022 which included new Awlgrip throughout, nonskid, new teak covering boards, and teak cockpit sole.As should be expected, she is easily managed thanks to her impeccable visibility and maneuverability.Whether the goal is to ply the cobalt blue waters of the Gulf Stream, or simply pull-up to a restaurant with the family, Big Blue is up to the task.While she is yacht quality, she was designed to be a fish boat first. While trolling, Big Blue pulls an extremely clean wake and her Vernatone muffled exhausts exit the transom above the waterline. Her glass over mahogany hull dampens unwanted sounds from penetrating from the vessel into the water. Her wheels have been tuned and her cutlass bearings replaced making her a stealthy weapon offshore. It?s not uncommon to see billfish just a few feet from her transom. At rest, she sits like a duck in the water - stable and sturdy.She radiates class and elegance while underway. Her 550 hp Cummins diesels emit a gentle rumble while she idles down the ICW and her common rail engines burn clean and completely smoke free all the while providing an extremely quiet cockpit. Those characteristics coupled with her open layout from the cockpit into the saloon provide an inviting environment for even the most discerning guests.She's the talk of the dock everywhere she goes. Not just because of her lineage, but because she's had the upgrades that most boat owner dreams of doing yet rarely have the time to complete. Her 2014 refit was well thought out and included a Cummins repower, a refinished mahogany interior with bright white soft goods that is absolutely gorgeous, 2 massive in-deck live wells, cockpit freezers, fishboxes, and more.At cruise, her sweet spot is 23 knots where she quietly loafs along burning right at 16-17 gallons per hour thanks to her set of Cummins QSB 550 common rail diesels. BridgeClassic Rybovich game boat bridge layout2 flush mount teaser reels in hard topVarnished teak helm pod and pedestalSingle teak ladder back helm chairSeating to port and starboard with cushionsUpdated aluminum half tower with hard top and recessed navigation lightsElectronics box overhead2 VHF radiosOriginal compassComplete cummins/smartcraft vessel view panelPolished Glendinning Palm Beach controlsPolished stainless steering wheelOriginal gauges on helm podStorage under seating and forward bridge storageVarnished Rybovich signature teak double handrailsLift up electronics cabinet forwardMurray Bros teak ladder back helm chairAnodized aluminum aft safety rail with 6 rocket launchersHatch cover for cockpit access hatchBridge wash down hose under port storage lockerElectronics2 Garmin 5212 MFD?sGarmin AutopilotCompass2 VHF: Icom 504 with remote Command Mic IIVolvo QL trim tabsFusion stereo headhuntJL Audio speakers throughoutCockpitTeak sole and covering boards freshly refinishedRelease Marine Battle Saddle w/ 6 rocket launchers2 gunwale rod holders2 gunwale hawse pipes2 in deck live bait wellsAccess hatch to the lazaretteTransom tuna doorRybovich teak and stainless steel bridge ladder with chrome on bronze step bracketsFresh water faucet2 kill boxes2 cockpit freezersEquipmentNew Strata Glass EnclosureRupp Double Spreader OutriggersHot and Cold Pressurized Water SystemFirebox Halon Fire Extinguisher System Engine Room(4) Kidde Fire Extinguishers(8) LifejacketsHigh Water Bilge Alarm forward and aft4 Rule Auto Bilge Pumps2 whale pumps2 Shower Water Pump-OutTV Cabinet in SalonCarbon Monoxide AlarmStamoid Cockpit Cover2 Morad AntennasAir Conditioning: Dometic - Cruisair Reverse CycleElectrical EquipmentCable Master Shore Power Inlet - 50 amp serviceBonding system completely redoneIsotemp water heaterGenerator: Cummin Onan 8kw Battery Charger: Mastervolt 12/50-3 bank chargerEngines and engine roomTwin Cummins QSB 550 hp common rail diesels installed in 2013 Engine room sprayed with Awlgrip before installationAverage Fuel Consumption : 16 gal/h, @ 23 knotsWOT 30+ knots loadedTransmissions: ZF 2:1 reduction gearShafts: Aquamet 22 stainless steel 1 3/4?Tides Marine dripless sealsBronze strutsBronze rudder stuffing boxesBronze rudders w/ stainless shaftsBatteries: 4 - 12V batterieswired in parallel in custom made, Awlcraft painted, fiberglass battery boxes for each engineBattery parallel switches, Battery shut-off switchesOil pressure alarms, engine priming pumps, bilge high water alarmFuel Filters: 2 Racor 900MASalonSatin varnished mahogany, with bright finished varnished moldingsOverhead LED soft white lightingL shape sofa to port with blue leather cushionsSofa to starboard with blue leather cushionsSofa has storage underneath on both sideDometic Cruisair reverse cycle air conditionerFlat screen TV and Fusion stereo with JL speakersLeatherette headlinerVarnished mahogany curtain valances both sides and aftRemovable carpet over the engine room access hatchesTwo sliding entrance doors aftOriginal electric circuit breaker panel locker with AC and DC circuit breakersGalley-down layout to starboardLocated off companionwayEleven foot long galleyCorian marble shell designCustom cabinetry with varnished teak trim(8) Storage draws(4) Storage lockersHidden Electric 2 burner stove with corian coverStainless steel sinkCabinet with electric refrigerator/ freezerMagic Chef microwave with a draw below(2) Overhead lightsStateroom - forwardUpper and lower crossover berthsOverhead LED soft white lightingOne large storage drawer under lower berthHanging lockerPort lightsForedeck access hatchSnow White Awlgrip cabinetry with varnished mahogany moldingsCork flooring with varnished mahogany trimDay HeadAccess forward stateroom and companionwayAwlgripped custom cabinet with varnished moldingsStorage locker under sinkVarnished mahogany trimmed storage locker12 volt Raritan headOverhead LED soft white lightingEnclosed stall showerPort lightMaster Stateroom to portCompanionway entrance to portOverhead LED soft white lightingQueen berth4 drawer storage under berth5 drawer storage cabinetCedar lined hanging lockerReading lamps2 port lightsCork floorMaster Stateroom HeadCorian marble shell design sinkOverhead LED soft white lightingRaritan headWalk in shower with PortlightHer registry can be seen here - https://www.michaelrybovichandsons.com/registry-pg-3/Place yourself behind the helm of this classic Rybovich for a moment.

For Sale: 94-foot Rybovich Sportfisherman

  • By Jake Lamb
  • July 22, 2024

Rybovich 94 III Amigos

Rybovich is an iconic Florida-based builder that has been building custom sport-fishing boats for more than 100 years. Its latest launch, a 94-foot sportfisherman called III Amigos, is a yacht it says “is designed to fish anywhere in the world in total luxury, thanks to a state-of-the-art power management system and redundant systems throughout.”

Launched in 2021, III Amigos is currently listed with Galati Yacht Sales for $19.995 million. The sport-fisherman’s four-stateroom, six-head layout can sleep eight guests while the crew quarters have accommodations for four.

Rybovich 94 III Amigos

“Throw out any preconceived notions you may have about sport-fishing yachts —even large ones,” Yachting previously wrote . “ III Amigos —a 94-footer from the consortium of boatbuilder Michael Rybovich, designer Patrick Knowles and an experienced owner—is far more mega-yacht than most fishing machines.”

Twin 2,600 hp MTU 16V2000 diesels push III Amigos to a 41-plus-knot top hop, making sure you leave your tournament competition in the wake at the shotgun start. The engines currently have 1,225 hours on them.

Rybovich 94 III Amigos

Speaking of competition, III Amigos is a tournament-ready sport-fisherman ready to pursue pelagics with a number of cockpit features including, but not limited to, bait freezers, a livewell, custom tackle stowage, a Bluewater Fighting Chair, in-deck fittings for an on-deck livewell, a sea chest in the lazarette with an air lock ability, three Eskimo ice chippers, under-gunwale stowage and a freezer under the mezzanine seating. It’s worth noting the mezzanine seating is air conditioned, making it a great spot to keep an eye on the trolling spread in comfort.

The vessel’s plush interior is thanks to a partnership with Patrick Knowles Designs, an award-winning designer based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and fabrication by Metrica of German. The salon has lounge seating aft and the galley and dining space forward. A U-shaped settee and coffee table are to starboard while two lounge chairs are to port. The galley’s countertop shares its space with a two-stool bar.

The galley is equipped with an array of meal-prep amenities, including:

  • Full-size Size Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer
  • Wolf range and oven
  • Microwave drawer oven
  • Exhaust Hood to Fully Extract Odors
  • Stainless-Steel sink
  • Pantry Stowage
  • Additional Sub-Zero freezers

Rybovich 94 III Amigos

The enclosed-bridge’s aft lounge has a day head immediately to port and an L-shaped settee to starboard. Forward, the wheelhouse has a single helm seat on centerline.

After a successful day in the fighting chair, everyone onboard can look forward to relaxing in one of four staterooms belowdecks, each en suite. Amidships, the full-beam master stateroom has a king berth with under-berth stowage and a 65-inch flat-screen TV. The VIP stateroom is located to port with a queen berth. The forward port guest stateroom has upper and lower berths while the starboard stateroom has side-by-side berths.

Some other notable features on board III Amigos include:

  • Furuno S-Band 30 kW Radar
  • Furuno 8-foot S-Band antenna
  • Furuno X-Band 25 kW Radar
  • Furuno 8′ X-Band open-array antenna
  • Two Furuno TZT2BB Navnet TZtouch2 black-box chartplotter/fish finder

  • Four Seatronx 24″ SRT series sunlight viewable glass-bridge monitor
  • Simrad A2004 Autopilot pack w/A2004 controller, AC70 autopilot computer, and HS70 GPS compass
