Description
Additional Information
Everglades builds the majority of their components for every model in-house – all the fiberglass parts, the aluminum fabrication of frames and rails, and all wiring harnesses – are built in their state-of-the-art environment by experienced craftsman. The result is a truly luxurious boat. The underside of every hatch I inspected was completely finished – no rough or exposed fiberglass cloth or rough edges anywhere. It also afford them the ability to offer a ten-year transferable hull warranty.

The 230CC features two aft swim plat-forms bracketing either side of the outboard, with a swim ladder neatly tucked under the port side
Stepping inside the huge cockpit (it’s a full 61 square feet. There’s a full – fiberglass and self-draining liner in the 230CC complete with in-floor courtesy lights and a wonderfully-effective no-skid surface. Centred on the transom is a 27 gallon recirculating livewell under a blue-tinted Plexiglas cover, with two flip-down and well-padded single seats outboard to both port and starboard. Either seat would be a thrilling place to sit and enjoy the comfortable but exhilarating ride that this 36-degree deadrise hull would produce in any sea.
Under the wide gunwales you’ll find ample rod storage for up to six rods. The starboard side gunwale also feature a flip out tackle box that falls at the perfect height so you don’t have to bend down to reach a traditional tackle box on the floor of the cockpit.
The upholstery appears as a standard high quality marine vinyl. But it’s what you can’t see sometimes that makes all the difference. Everyglades upholstery is made from an extra-heavy vinyl with an acrylic top coat, Tenara™ thread, and an anti-mildew backing. Plus it’s adhered to a high-density plastic backing with flow through foam cushions so there’s no worry of rot. Ever.
The t-top is another Everglades innovation featuring their patented sliding wind-shield that drops down in front of the con-sole behind the forward seat. This means you can choose to ride with the wind in your hair or be protected from the cold spray from a wave that’s inevitable if you’re out in the spring or fall shoulder seasons, especially in Canada. Overhead, there’s a fiberglass hardtop supported by a beefy aluminum powder coated frame, with built-in LED lights, spreader lights, electronics box, and rocket launcher rod holders. (In my water test I noted how solid the t-top felt and heard no squeaks or rattles.)
The helm features Yamaha’s digital display, a Garmin GPS map VHF radio, Fusion AM-FM radio with USB inputs in the glove box and count them – two- stainless steel cupholders for the captain and co-pilot. The helm seat features a pull-out tackle drawer under the flip-up bolster double-wide seat base. The seat base is at a good height for standing with the bolster in the upright position, and a comfortable distance away from the stainless wheel while seated.
Under the helm console, you’ll find a small space for a porta-pottie, with the access door to port.
Just in front of the helm is a forward-facing double-wide seat with a commanding view. This would be my second favourite place on the boat, second only to being behind the wheel!
Forward, the large sunpad features storage underneath, and an anchor locker up the bow just aft of the stainless anchor roller. I like how the stainless rails end at the bow leaving space to work in the anchor, or for fun to use as a diving platform.
Construction wise, every unsinkable Everglades boat is built in their 125,000-square-foot facility in Edgewater, Florida. The process begins with moulded structural foam pieces that are moulded separately and then built into the fiberglass hull. The process is called ‘Rapid Molded Core Assembly Process’ – or RAMCAP – and it won Everglades’ owner Bob Dougherty a Marine Manufacturers Innovation Award in 1999. Everglades builds the majority of their components for every model in-house – all the fiberglass parts, the aluminum fabrication of frames and rails, and all wiring harnesses – are built in their state-of-the-art environment by experienced craftsman. The result is a truly luxurious boat. The underside of every hatch I inspected was completely finished – no rough or exposed fiberglass cloth or rough edges anywhere.
