Research Pursuit Boats - C 230

~ “No hassles” doesn’t mean “no frills” when it comes to the versatile C 230. Despite her trailerable size, this boat packs a lot of amenities for fishing, cruising and watersports enthusiasts.

The integral transom bench seat simultaneously provides comfortable seating while the seat base houses a 22-gallon storage compartment. To port is a 23-gallon recirculating livewell with a rigging station located at the transom to starboard. A removable cooler can tuck easily under the leaning post but it’s not really necessary considering the expansive insulated cooler in the molded-in forward console seat base. There’s a portable head with pumpout in the console and even a washdown with hose and sprayer in the cockpit for quick clean up or to cool off on a scorching day.

Efficiency is the name of the game with the C 230 in term of use of space and minimal maintenance and clean up after a full day. Also, consider the fuel efficiency afforded by the single, economical Yamaha four-stroke engine. The C 230 packs a lot of punch.
