1996 Hewes Bayfisher

This 1996 Hewes Bayfisher is an 18-foot fiberglass flats boat built for shallow-water fishing. The boat has undergone extensive reconstruction over several years, with major systems and structural components addressed throughout the work.

The Yamaha SHO V Max 115 hp outboard was installed in 2024 with only 41 hours of running time and includes an extended warranty through September 2030. Hydraulic steering was added in 2024 for improved control. The deck was rebuilt in 2023 with new fiberglass and non-slip surfacing, and the interior received new fiberglass work as well. The boat was rewired in 2022 and 2023.

Performance and fishing equipment include Lenco trim tabs, an Atlas jack plate, and a Minn Kota trolling motor with spot lock feature. The original polling platform has been removed but is included with the boat.
