2023 Robalo R272 Center Console

The 2023 Robalo R272 is a 27-foot center console built on a Kevlar-reinforced fiberglass hull, powered by twin 500-horsepower Yamaha engines that deliver a top speed of 52 knots and a cruising speed of 32 knots. The boat carries an NMMA certification and comes with a limited lifetime hull warranty plus a five-year Yamaha engine warranty.

The layout centers on an open fishing platform with a bow casting deck that converts to U-shaped seating via a fiberglass filler. The cockpit features a self-bailing design with a 100-gallon fish box equipped with overboard discharge pumps, additional 25-gallon fish boxes under port and starboard bow hatches, and a 30-gallon cooler with livewell. An aft-facing bench seat incorporates a 20-gallon cooler underneath, while a full transom seat folds flush into the transom wall. The cabin includes an enclosed head compartment with electric toilet and holding tank.

The hard top is powder-coated and fitted with rod holders, an electronics box with wiring, and LED spreader lights. The boat rides on trim tabs with indicators, power-assisted hydraulic steering via SeaStar, and a dual battery system with crossover switch and voltage regulating system. Diamond Lustre non-skid surfaces cover the deck, and premium Envision Marine silicone upholstery covers seating. A custom bonded front windshield features overhead ventilation, and a side entry door has custom stainless steel framing. Navigation lighting is LED throughout. An aluminum triple-axle trailer with aluminum wheels and a spare tire kit is included.
