From the constant demands of brackish and coastal waters to the incredible diversity of inland rivers and reservoirs, the all-new 1980cc is redefining what inshore boats can and should be. The 19’10” center console design is balanced on a broad 95” beam and equipped with a world of standard features, floor space, and storage. Bow to stern, it’s a precision-crafted machine built to go head-to-head with everything from redfish and flounder to striper, crappie, and catfish.
Running on an our exclusive AVX Dense Base™ hull design, this Fiberglass-Infused Aluminum Hybrid™ literally dominates rough water with a super-smooth, solid, and shallow-running ride. Hole shots are faster than a hookset, and the responsive handling of hydraulic steering makes this platform a powerful rig to run.
Inside, our Tru-Trek™ skid resistant floor surface is engineered with a tread-gripping, super-tough polyurea bond that’s easy-to-clean and ultra-durable. It’s complemented by even more long-lasting protection in our Hard Case™ exterior paint as well as the painted undersides to the lids. Combined with a roomy, walk-around layout and even more space from the toe kick (with LED lighting) beneath the console, this wide-open rig is geared for serious fishing, bow to stern. The 150-rated design is further enhanced with an oversized, aerated well including splash guards, filter screens, and pump-out. At the helm, the fiberglass console is equipped with speed, tach, fuel, trim, and water pressure gauges as well as lit-tip switches, cup holders, and a wide choice of flush-mounted electronics. Also amidships, our multi-position seat and leaning post is custom engineered for optimum support, comfort, and convenience.
Elsewhere, twin 8 ½’ rod boxes balance the front deck while a built-in step/cooler sits just aft of another large set of lockable storages. The convenience of an extra livewell/baitwell is also available up front. Built with the added strength of insulated fiberglass, each of these forward compartments includes a raised lip and rubber trim seal as well as compression latches to help keep out moisture. Just aft of the console, a pair of fold-down jump seats not only maximize deck space but provide even more room for friends and family. You’ll note the same attention to detail in the rear power compartment. From the wide opening to the spacious interior, this box is built for quick, confident access to the bilge, pumps, and fuel system. Combined with a Minn Kota Fortrex Riptide trolling motor, 3-bank on board charger, 26-gallon fuel capacity, the unparalleled strength of our Vector Force™ transom, availability of single or dual shallow water anchors, and our custom-built aluminum trailer, this wood-free rig is more than an ultra-versatile center console design… It’s a budget-minded machine intent on opening-up the shallows and dominating the most demanding days – in and out of the salt.
