The 2018 HCB 53 is a 53-foot center console powered by quad Yamaha XTO 425 engines producing 1,700 horsepower. Built on a fiberglass hull with a 13-foot beam, this boat combines tournament-grade fishing capability with offshore cruising comfort. The design accommodates both serious anglers and luxury cruisers, featuring a versatile bow that transitions between forward-facing lounge seating, wraparound social configuration with table, sun pad, or clear fishing deck.
Below deck, the cabin houses a queen berth, galley, generous storage, and a private head with shower. The cockpit is extensively outfitted for fishing: dual 55-gallon baitwells, aft livewell seating with backrest, freezer plates in both aft fish boxes, Eskimo ice chipper plumbed to the fish box, and additional rod holders. The full gap tower includes joystick control and seating for three.
Electronics are comprehensive: three 17-inch Garmin MFDs, dual 1kW CHIRP sonar, XD radar, VHF radio, and autopilot. Navigation and boat control features include Helm Master Joystick with Setpoint, bow thruster, and full joystick control integration. The 53 also carries a Seakeeper 5 stabilizer, Kohler generator, KVH satellite TV, and FLIR infrared camera.
Additional amenities include JL Audio sound system, Garmin/Yamaha chartplotter, teak upgrades, full cockpit sole in Plasteek, diamond pattern upholstery inserts, rear windscreen, canvas covers, and Rupp outriggers. New batteries were recently installed. The boat has been meticulously maintained and upgraded throughout its service.
