2017 Chaos 21 Tarpon Bay

This 2017 Chaos 21 Tarpon Bay is a fiberglass flats boat built for shallow-water fishing and bay running. Measuring 20 feet 4 inches with an 8-foot beam, it combines the precision of flats boat design with capability in rougher conditions. Power comes from a Mercury 200XL four-cylinder engine with 188 hours of service, paired with an EZ Loader trailer.

The boat is outfitted for serious fishing. An Atlas 6-inch hydraulic jack plate, Power-Pole 8-foot blade, and Minn Kota trolling motor support fishing operations, while Lenco trim tabs and a battery switch manage performance. The helm features a Garmin GPSMAP 741xs, Garmin VHF200 radio, and custom helm pad. A Fusion MS-UD750 stereo with JL Audio marine speakers provide audio.

The deck layout emphasizes casting space and comfort. A powder-coated T-top with ski tow support and a leaning post create a functional platform. Teak toe rails, trim tabs, and a full suite of covers—for the console, leaning post, motor, and entire boat—indicate thoughtful maintenance. The bottom was previously painted and the boat had been dry stored.
