Research 2012 - Andros Boatworks - Cuda 23

~Cuda 23
The ultimate bay boat with a thirst for offshore adventure. Versatile, economical and easy to maintain, the Cuda 23 is the widest panga in it's class, and features a full transom like the Tarpon 26. More added features, top of the line hardware, and a higher free-board make this boat the new sheriff in panga 23 town. With a full transom you can feel more comfortable when the seas pick up. Add a porta bracket and it will out fish most flats boats in the skinny water. Two live wells standard, combined with more storage and the option of more horsepower in a 23 panga style boat.
