Fairline F//Line 33:

Sleek, Luxurious Day Boat

The Fairline F//Line 33 is made for elegant entertaining in the cockpit, where there’s booth seating for 6 around a fixed adjustable-height table with passageways outboard on each side. Lower it and the two seatbacks can be flipped down to create aft-facing seating or laid flat to create a sunpad. A wet bar with grill provides more utility. Additionally, an optional hydraulic transom folds out to form a “teak beach.” Below there’s is an intimate banquette with table for cocktails, which converts into a bed for two, plus a double berth amidships and head, giving this day boat definite weekend possibilities.

Grady-White Fisherman 216:

Power to Fish, Cruise or Ski

Powered by a 200-hp Yamaha outboard in our test, Grady-White’s Fisherman 216 is a more-than-capable boat for fishing along the coast or even heading offshore on the right day, thanks to a range of 269 miles at 3500 rpm. With a 4.8-second time to plane, she’s also capable of towing watersports and her 42.2-mph top end gives her the pep to outrun a threatening storm.
