Well, that depends…will a new boat serve you and your needs better? How long will you be out of the water if you do sell? This boat was custom, what more or different would you want in a new/different boat?
Depends on your future plans, I am Building an old 25 seavee and love the build videos and all the information you have provided! I will be sure to wear my bait socks on the first run!
Seadeck combing pads work great they stick right on with the 3M adhesive they clean up real well and they have whisper gray I know because I have them lol. I don't even worry about them being exposed to the sun and if I ever need to replace them super easy peel them off clean up the adhesive and stick new ones on far cheaper than reupholstery. I replaced my upholstered combing pads with the seadeck and it was a great decision. I have a 28 Sea Hunter Floridian deposit down right now about a year in of my 2-year wait I will probably have them just do seadeck combing pads as well cuz I'm tough on upholstery
I'd say keep it. It will always be a do it all boat for your area and with fuel likely being on a long term high, you will have an efficient option for content and adventures. As you spin up the next phase with a larger vessel just build that as a separate, independent plan that self funds. Let the plan mature. For me in Tampa Bay/Nature Coast I've rebuilt a 1988 Maverick Deluxe and for these waters and it's my inshore/nearshore do it all dream boat and I've bespoked it to my liking. It's like putting a technical polling skiff and a Bay boat into a blender so it's perfect. I do plan an offshore boat, but I'd never sacrifice the capabilities of skiffy bay boat to get it. As for the T-Top, I'd never want one on an inshore boat, but would not want an offshore boat without one. For yours I'd check out the Tuuci Shade Blade. It's what I want to do for my Maverick Deluxe next.
My first question is a business thought- Do you really need a bigger boat? Will it increase profit and be worth the investment? As far as selling goes, could you afford to start the new build while still running charters in this boat to pay for the new one? That's how I would do it, let the boats pay for themselves. If not, selling it now might bring a premium price. Maybe buy and run a beater boat until the new one gets built? I have a center console similar to yours. I thought I would flip it after a year or two but held back and I'm very glad. I've gone through 5-6 other boats, most of them bigger and "nicer", but in the end, I sell those and still run my big CC. Love the ride, how fuel efficient it is and that I can almost go anywhere in it. It's had a "temporary" bimini top for years, and I love it in July and August. I miss the cabin and protection from the elements of the Sea Hunt that I just sold, but I sold it at the right time, financially. My CC has the whisper gray deck too, and yeah, it gets hot. That's what the washdown is for. Should you sell? Has it paid for a chunk of the purchase price yet? How much income will you lose if you are without a boat while building a new one? Everything is sky-high right now. What happens if you build, and then the market drops, as it's starting to do already? Questions to ponder before you make a decision.
Great looking boat and I thoroughly enjoyed following the build. The only thing I would personally want would be a T-Top. It's nice to be able to get in some shade when you're out on the water all day.
On my 24’ topless bay boat, I bought a 17” sunshade and I use paint extension sticks in my bow and stern rod holders. I get awesome shade in a matter of less than a minute and everything cost me less than 250.00 Get tons of compliments on it. I don’t like overpaying for tops and shades that are currently on the market.
Hey I was thinking of doing that EXACT same thing! Planning to orient my forward rod holders a bit toward the bow so those poles cant forward. If any other tips, would appreciate them.
@@benjaminallen2370 I used 15* rod holders and pitched them forward on the sides of the bow. Lowes had some real good rope cam locks so I could adjust the lines to exact lengths needed. The paint extensions are heavy duty fiberglass that handle flex pretty good and allows me to adjust height depending on sun position throughout the day. Amazon has some pretty inexpensive sunshades and they store well with no mildew issues.
I would keep the Latitude. It’s basically a brand new boat built the way you like it. A bigger boat means more money to upkeep. Burns alot more fuel and wont fit under all the bridges. The Latitude you can fish inshore and off shore. I love your current boat. Hopefully one day I will have one like yours.
I've watched you long enough and I've had enough boats of my own to know that you aren't going to wear knee pads, you aren't going to install a Bimini top, and you aren't going to install a Tucci sunshade! It's tough to perfectly time any market and if you have a master plan that includes a larger boat, then sell it when it's convenient for you. Do what you gotta do to keep your interest and passion alive. Good luck to you, great content!
Bigger expenses come with a bigger boat, much bigger. In your area in particular, insurance comes to mind and the fuel isn't going down anytime soon. I picked up my Contender during the 2008 housing crash when no one was buying anything. Dealers, manufacturers were starving! I got it $24k below "Dealer Cost!" I negotiated a ridiculously low cash deal. There are no benefits to buy now, there is another housing crash-reset coming that will bring prices back down, takes time. I suggest you wait at least a year and keep the boat.
I have found the distance between the deck surface and the top of a deck railing is to short. As you mentioned your knees suffered but more importantly you can easily go overboard. I feel the deck railing height should raise to thigh height.
If your can afford it, i would definitely keep the 25. Such a nice rig and it's definitely nice to have a bay boat style in the keys. I assume it doesn't draw much water to you can take it redfishing and stuff.
Split the door, wear knee pads, keep the boat. When upgrading, extra profit will not cover the additional spending. Having a basic boat on your fleet will prove to be a blessing in terms of joy/maintenance/cost ratios. Thanks for the awesome content. God bless you.
In the same "boat"...trying to balance market conditions with next purchase. Suggest handing on to it for a bit more because the price of new boats, IMHO, is outpaced used on a percentage basis. Knee pads and add on shades could work for short term. Regarding trolling motor: a must have if you plan on using it as an anchor - a real game changer. Don't wait to order the trolling motor! It took me 7 months to get all the parts together. Crazy.
Love your content and I have learned so much from it! I can’t believe you are thinking of selling although it may make sense. The market is strong and the cost of new boats simply won’t come down in my opinion so while your boat is in new condition you may want to capitalize. The sea vee you mentioned is costly as you know so ever penny toward a purchase like that helps although it’s your pocket not mine. I would look at it like your time and effort to build your boat is helping you purchase what you ultimately want. Just my two cents but In any event I wish you all the best! Capt Tony Big Pine Key
I believe it depends how over inflated your next boat build will be. If you can sell within this market and not take too bad of a hit for the larger one, go for it. I’d love to see a build on a catamaran, not many out there will do the in-depth review like you and not many do cats.
I'd keep the Latitude until you're ready financially for the bigger one. That'll give you more time to save and get the business worked out the way you'd like. Even if you keep it for another 2 years or so i don't think you'll lose much when you go to sell it. In the same boat as you right now and I've decided to wait.
Boat is beautiful. From the running shots it looks like it needs more weight in it. IMO the console is way too high and the leaning post looks uncomfortable. If you drift fish mostly I be that narrow deep v rolls badly. I don’t know if that is the right platform for that fishing. That nice ride means your going to get tossed when stopped. More of a run and gun rig imo.
Around here at the mouth of the river, they are several guys running what looks to be brand new Freeman's for charter. At over a million dollars a boat, I don't know how they make a penny.
If there is a way to keep her I would, yes it might take longer to save for the bigger one but remember all that time you were waiting for this one to be built? Can't make money without her herald besides this would be a nice run around boat for a lot of other things bait ,fun at the sand bar and all the fun stuff.
Man, watching you catching lobster makes me miss FL a lot. I'm up on the Chesapeake, and it's great, but it's a different world. Thanks for helping me feel like I was back home for a while.
Simply an awesome rig! Based on your video, it sounded to me like you really love the boat. Bigger is not always better…so maybe you could add the trolling, split the door and add the fresh water tanks? And maybe there’s even some options for a portable umbrella to pull out when you’re not running. Again, it’s sounds like you really like the boat….I’d keep it ….just my 2 cents.
Was going to redo my deck non-skid with whisper gray but rethinking that now. Heard somewhere that whisper gray was the darkest you could go without burning your feet in the Gulf Coast sun but I guess that's wrong...
18:07 Get kneepads! Less than $25 from Lowe's or Home Depot. After you get used to them, you forget you have them on. (Tip from a tile man, who knows some people that you know in Ft. Myers.)
I notice there are a lot of topless boats like yours down there in that area, is that b/c of the low bridges you mention? I am in Wilmington NC and pretty much everyone has a TTop but we don't have any low bridges.
It all depends on budget of course. If you have the funds then keeping this boat will allow you to use it as a skiff and workhorse. But if you need the cash for your ultimate boat don’t look back.
If you love the boat then keep it…. If you want to add to the fleet with a bigger boat just keep a sharp eye out there will always be deals around …especially in south florida
I live in north Fl would you recommend this boat to travel up to 60 miles out with the standard motor it comes with? Overall would you buy another one? thanks.
Awesome day cpt mike congrats 🎊🎈🎉.. question why don’t u have a t-top on that beautiful boat?? Is it by choice or because of the low bridges in your area?? Thank you for the great video keep them coming
I have a 236 key largo and made it home in 6 foot waves and People act like 6ft is nothing you gotta know how to ride it it takes longer but most people want just full throttle it lol
Whats the price? I'm looking for an affordable 18-20 foot boat for fishing with like 2 ,90or125 outboard engines. They are too expensive in PR its better to buy it in Florida and ship it to PR...can. somebody with knowledge give me some advice? Will be used for fishing 2-3 miles out around PR
Will if your thinking about buying a new boat the wait time for outboards are around 3to5 years so I don’t think it’s the right time for order a new one so if you sell your boat you’ll be boat less
Captian Mike would considered a Cat? Dave Eastward, Ft. Pierce. They have a Killer 24’ and 30’ hull. With an Armstrong bracket they are like a 32’ footer. Saw Dave said in a factory tour I saw on TH-cam (We make the Hummer of boats) The only limitations they have is your imagination and checkbook.
Also center console boats are not fun when you get older, you need cabins to get out of the sun make it have a nice lunch and camp out on not to mention the convenience of a head. And shower.
Stepping up in to that much larger of a boat is going to be exponentially more expensive. Personally I'd rather have an economical boat I can use daily... Tight Lines!!
I know how good you are catching live bait and fish too. What brand cast net do you recommend me? Saludos from Miami fishing Pipo. I missed you at the soflo boat show lady weekend. I made a little video for LBT boats.
Im building a fishing boat right now. Should be done in about a month. I fish out of fort lauderdale. Want to come out swording? Better yet i can trailer down to Miami and you can show me the ropes down there. She is a hardcore fishing boat, even plan to put some bonito tubes in her.
Whut! Well shit.lol you have the best size and platform. Add seadeck of your choice at least. I built my boat the same time as you and that's my next move. Keep trucking mate
Watch the market. You should be able to make money for a little longer AND make money on it, and shortly after when interest ups again and boats start becoming more and more available, the prices will drop and you can get the next boat you want at a discounted price. The only unknown is when will the boat prices normalize in the new market after the changes; when will prices bottom out. So it’s a gamble but ideally that might the way to go especially if you have others to use while you wait 😉
Do you think we should sell our boat and upgrade?
depends on the profitability of the new bigger port compared to profitability of the current build.
Well, that depends…will a new boat serve you and your needs better? How long will you be out of the water if you do sell? This boat was custom, what more or different would you want in a new/different boat?
Would you consider a cat?
new boat will be $$$ right now not worth it till prices drop. you can make money but cost alot more for a new one.
Depends on your future plans, I am

Great looking boat and I thoroughly enjoyed following the build. The only thing I would personally want would be a T-Top. It's nice to be able to get in some shade when you're out on the water all day.

Dear Mike I learned lessons I never go for fishing with just one engine.
Keep the boat, get seadek for the knees. Maybe get a cushion for the leaning post with snap buttons so you can remove it to clean snd keep out of sun

Get the SeaDeck combing pads. They'll last longer than foam and vinyl. Not as squishy, but it'll prevent the bruises.
Keep the boat capt. ! Nice all around boat. Always need a backup
I hope all is well!! I have not seen you on on TH-cam in forever!!
A good alternative for combing bolsters is sea deck. Its durable
Indeed.
Man, watching you catching lobster makes me miss FL a lot. I'm up on the Chesapeake, and it's great, but it's a different world. Thanks for helping me feel like I was back home for a while.

I'm afraid if you sell that boat, you will always regret it. Been there,done that. Keep her, she's part of the family now. Stay safe brother.
Marine Deck combing pads! Ease on the knees and very little maintenance.
Great option!
Keep your boat bro! It’s a work horse and should make you even more money. Just my opinion. Love the channel
Selling already! Built a Dusky 278!
It all depends on budget of course. If you have the funds then keeping this boat will allow you to use it as a skiff and workhorse. But if you need the cash for your ultimate boat don’t look back.
You should check out the Sea-Lion 34. They will let you customize it as much as you like and price is not bad.

Twin motors
@@ReelReports would you recommend a Competition or Latitude if it’s between those two? Thanks for your opinion and time.
Congratulations... You've succeeded in building a very different color... Dusky... LOL. Good stuff thanks for posting...
So... what did you decide? Sell now? Build new and then sell once it's ready?
I can’t believe anybody could stay out all day without some sort of top. I remember those days on the way follow the shade around from the tee top.
Enter flats fishing guys…
Awesome day cpt mike congrats 🎊🎈🎉.. question why don’t u have a t-top on that beautiful boat?? Is it by choice or because of the low bridges in your area?? Thank you for the great video keep them coming
Nice review. Would have to get a top. I’m in NE FL and I know it’s just as hot where you are.
I have a 236 key largo and made it home in 6 foot waves and People act like 6ft is nothing you gotta know how to ride it it takes longer but most people want just full throttle it lol
Wouldn't a lay back top be an awesome feature. 😎
Is that the old SeaVee hull? What performance are you seeing? Thanks
It's the old P&D hull. Derivatives of that were SeaVee, Contender, and Whitewater.
New Calcutta 323 is an absolute monster.
Whats the price? I'm looking for an affordable 18-20 foot boat for fishing with like 2 ,90or125 outboard engines. They are too expensive in PR its better to buy it in Florida and ship it to PR...can. somebody with knowledge give me some advice? Will be used for fishing 2-3 miles out around PR
Will if your thinking about buying a new boat the wait time for outboards are around 3to5 years so I don’t think it’s the right time for order a new one so if you sell your boat you’ll be boat less
How does the ride compare to a Whitewater 27?
A 28 Whitewater is a much larger boat.
@ReelReports what about a 25 whitewater, would you say it handles as well as your Latitude?
Loved this video & that boat! What would the asking price be, have you decided yet? Looking forward to more Captain!
Do these boats have the same hull as a Competition 25
Nope. Quite a bit different.
Anyone else notice the boat in the clouds as he's talking at 10:23?
Anyone know what brand that umbrella is?
What boat umbrella do you use?
Captian Mike would considered a Cat? Dave Eastward, Ft. Pierce. They have a Killer 24’ and 30’ hull. With an Armstrong bracket they are like a 32’ footer. Saw
Dave said in a factory tour I saw on TH-cam (We make the Hummer of boats) The only limitations they have is your imagination and checkbook.
Thanks for sharing.
How many hours do you have on the 300? Any issues?
700. Not an issue.
Also center console boats are not fun when you get older, you need cabins to get out of the sun make it have a nice lunch and camp out on not to mention the convenience of a head. And shower.
Great boat. 👍
Man that spot was loaded with lobster!
That's a ridiculous price, they are keeping it up on purpose. In Pompano in 4.89 on the water.
The older you get, the more you appreciate shade.
Can't argue with that.
37 Seavee ? Now you’re talkin
Boom!
How much are you looking to get for it?
Donde compraste el paraguas.
Time for something bigger and better! And Maybe a nice bimini top or hard top
Remember how long you were without a boat during the build. If you sell it you're shore fishing again or waiting for a boat invite.
Stepping up in to that much larger of a boat is going to be exponentially more expensive. Personally I'd rather have an economical boat I can use daily...
Tight Lines!!

Taking us with you :/ been almost a year with no vids
Hey Capt., did you ever sell your LTB? If so what did you get next? When are you going to start posting again
Haven’t seen any videos for a while captain Mike I hope you’re ok😊
Sun beater . Should of added rod cockpit tarp . That’s all it needs
link to that umbrella!
Whut! Well shit.lol you have the best size and platform. Add seadeck of your choice at least. I built my boat the same time as you and that's my next move. Keep trucking mate
If you can afford it, keep it. Sell while you can get the most but only if you can keep fishing.
It doesn't seem like you've had this boat that long last I remember you priced that one at the boat show
Colomniana! from my homeland!
I want to fish in Colombia.
You said you liked simplicity when you got that boat in one episode.
I wouldn't sell it. 1 year isn't enough to explore all the possibilities you have with it.
Don't sale, just keep I'm the fleet. Wait for the inflation is over and then think about larger boat!
How much for the boat
Make offer
Keep simple its the key , i think its not time this boat performing great ,sea dek its the only i add to the boat😃💪
Big boat = Big payments…. Keep it simple, you have a nice low maintenance boat that’s plenty capable!👌💪🏼
How much?
Bigger better with all the amenities you need for comfort for your passengers
Throw a seakeeper 1 on there and it'll fish like 3x the boat
Watch the market. You should be able to make money for a little longer AND make money on it, and shortly after when interest ups again and boats start becoming more and more available, the prices will drop and you can get the next boat you want at a discounted price. The only unknown is when will the boat prices normalize in the new market after the changes; when will prices bottom out. So it’s a gamble but ideally that might the way to go especially if you have others to use while you wait 😉
