This 2012 Mikelson 43 Sportfisher combines Tom Fexas's deep-V hull design with the builder's reputation for solid construction. Twin Cummins QSB 6.7 diesel engines rated at 480 hp drive Zeus pod units, delivering joystick control and dynamic positioning capability. The wide 15-foot 8-inch beam supports a spacious layout and generous cockpit suited equally to offshore fishing or cruising. Fuel capacity reaches 600 gallons with 200 gallons of water storage, supporting extended range.
The interior flows across two staterooms and a full head with separate shower stall. The forward master features an island berth, while a guest cabin to port holds twin berths. The salon opens to an aft galley fitted with granite countertops and cherry cabinetry, with teak and holly sole throughout. A flybridge provides forward helm seating and a circular dinette, supported by a full electronics package.
The cockpit is set up for tournament fishing with dual in-transom bait tanks, fish boxes, and tackle storage alongside a transom door. Outriggers and rocket launchers are installed. Systems include a generator, air conditioning, and a utility room beneath the salon providing access to mechanical systems and additional storage.
