The 2024 Crestliner XFC 179 is a compact aluminum fishing runabout built for shallow-water and near-shore work. Powered by a 90-horsepower Mercury 4-stroke EFI outboard, it carries four people and holds 21 gallons of fuel. The all-welded aluminum hull is paired with a galvanized Karavan bunk trailer fitted with a swing tongue, ratchet straps, aluminum wheels, and composite fenders.
The boat is rigged as a serious fishing platform. A bow raised fishing deck includes a MinnKota Maxxum 70-pound thrust trolling motor with foot pedal, two storage compartments, rod storage, and an aerated livewell. The stern raised casting platform features an aerated livewell with divider, two more storage compartments, and dedicated battery and fuel storage. The cockpit sits between them, with a center storage compartment that doubles as a step-up to the stern. Two movable swivel fishing chairs and two foldable driver and passenger seats with under-storage complete the seating arrangement.
Console appointments include a fiberglass helm with tilt steering, a Humminbird Helix 7 GPS and fish finder, analog gauges for speed, rpm, trim, and fuel, and lighted switches controlling navigation and anchor lights, courtesy lights, the livewell recirculation, and bilge. Rod tie-down straps and beverage holders finish the details.
The boat shows 39 engine hours and minimal wear. The exterior carries only minor scuffs and scratches, with light interior use. A storage cover is included. The Mercury engine carries factory warranty through July 2027.
