Walkthrough of the 2025 Sailfish Boats 276 DC

The 2025 Sailfish Boats 276 DC is a versatile dual console boat that is designed for both anglers and families. In this walkthrough, we will take a look at some of the different areas of the boat and highlight the features and amenities to give you an idea of what the 276 DC has to offer.

Transom and Stern

Starting at the transom, you enter the boat via a step down. At the step down is a freshwater wash down that is perfect for rinsing off after spending time out in the water. Here, there is also a boarding ladder that has four steps and grab handles for safety.

The stern is very large offering a lot of deck space and is ideal for anglers who love to fish. This area can be easily used for casting, fishing, and reeling in a big catch. There is a live well located near the transom and features rounded edges and an easy lift lid. The lid to the live well is clear and the live well is lighted inside.

At the transom is a pull down bench that does fold up when not in use. To the starboard side in the stern is another pull down bench to provide additional seating.

On the port side of the stern is an easy access dive door that can double as a platform to jump into the water. The opening of the dive door is large enough that you can even pull a large catch on board. There is an adjustable seat here that can be removed or leaned down to create a sun lounger. Underneath the sun lounger is a built-in cooler.

Moving closer to the helm area, there is aft facing seating that is perfect for watching family in the water or watching lines that have been cast.

A removable and mountable table is available in the storage space under the helm. This table can be mounted when you want to serve food or drinks and put away when not in use.

Hardtop

A hard top does provide cover and shade to the cockpit and some of the stern. The hardtop features integrated docking and spreader lights and is outfitted with several speakers to provide entertainment.

An area on the hardtop is dedicated to storage of your personal flotation devices and there is a large in-floor locker on the floor for additional storage of gear and equipment.

The hardtop has plenty of rocket launchers on both sides to hold your fishing rods and equipment.

Entertainment on board is provided by a Fusion stereo system with Rockford Fosgate LED lighted speakers.

Helm

The helm features an oversized and plush captain’s chair that is power operated and sits on a swivel base. You can adjust the seat to your liking for a comfortable ride. The seat does have flip up bolsters should you want to stand and steer instead of sit.

Surrounding the cockpit area is a large tempered glass windshield that also allows you to walk through and access the bow of the boat.

Inside the helm is a large head that is enclosed behind a hatch door. The door is lockable, and the interior of the hatch includes an electric marine head, bright lighting, sink with faucet, countertop, storage, and towel rack. This space can double as another storage area depending on your personal needs. A lockable glove box does sit on top of the head’s hatch compartment.

The console at the helm is large and easy to use. The console area features dual Garmin large console screens that offer Mercury Vessel View and a chart plotter. The area has a large ergonomic tilt steering wheel and nearby are all of your rocker switches and the digital shift and throttle. You can easily access and control the entertainment on the boat with the touch of a button.

There is a storage space under the helm that can be used for dry storage of your items. This area also stores the table that can be mounted at the aft.

Bow

The bow of the 2025 Sailfish Boats 276 DC has plenty of space and is an excellent spot for fishing and for entertaining. Throughout the bow you will find plenty of integrated speakers, cup holders, and USB charging ports.

There is a huge seating area that can be used with or without the cushions. When used with cushions, the seating area is a large chaise style seating section with fold down arm rests. The cushions are comfortable, plush, and made from marine grade materials. There is plenty of storage beneath the seating and can be easily accessed by lifting the seat up.

Should you not want to use the cushions, you can easily remove them and the space transforms into an excellent casting area.

The bow seating area has high gunnels that are perfect for safety, especially when children and passengers are riding up front. These high gunnels come up just high enough to keep you in the boat and allow you to feel secure, even if you use the gunnel as a casting platform.

There is a bow block off door that allows you to close it to separate the areas of the boat or you can open it up and walk through right to the helm and stern.
