2025 Contender 26 Bay

The 2025 Contender 26 Bay is a 26-foot fiberglass bay boat powered by a single Yamaha 350HP outboard with 20 hours of running time. The engine is mounted on a heavy-duty upgraded 6-inch jackplate. Navigation and offshore capability are handled by a Garmin 9219 display, Garmin 215 VHF radio, GSD 25 module, GXM54 Sirius weather receiver, and B75 transducer. The helm also features a Fusion Apollo stereo with six JL Audio 8.8-inch speakers.

The boat includes a stand-through second station with full controls and hardtop, paired with a mini fixed-back leaning post and forward seating with backrests. Finished in custom Stars & Stripes gel coat with matching underside hardtop and baseball-stitched light grey upholstery, the boat carries two 10-foot white Power-Poles, two electric reel outlets, Tigress outrigger bases, and livewell lights with clear lids. Underwater lights and under-gunnel lighting add to the design, while freshwater and raw water washdowns, a boarding ladder, and console glove box round out the practical equipment.

Additional upgrades include enhanced bilge and battery systems. Underwater and under-gunnel lighting enhances visibility and aesthetics. A dual-axle trailer is included with the boat, and custom canvas covers provide protection.
