The 2025 Robalo R257 is a 25-foot dual console fishing boat built on a Kevlar-reinforced fiberglass hull and powered by twin 400-horsepower Yamaha engines. The design balances fishing capability with everyday usability across an open layout suited to both fresh and saltwater conditions.
The boat accommodates multiple anglers and passengers with a bow casting platform that converts to U-shaped seating with removable cushions, port split bench seating with a reversible backrest that manually adjusts to face aft, and a full transom seat that folds flush when not in use. The starboard side includes horizontal rod storage under the gunwale. A comfort package adds a galley with solid surface countertop, sink, and faucet, while an enclosed fiberglass head compartment with lockable door serves as a dedicated facility. Dual battery switches with voltage sensing relay manage house and engine systems independently.
Fishing features include port and starboard insulated fish boxes with overboard drains, a 30-gallon port aft livewell with adjustable flow valve and LED lighting, and 10 stainless steel rod holders positioned across the boat. A hardtop with powder-coated frame offers weather protection and houses six rod holders, dual storage boxes, LED spreader lights, tri-color overhead lights, and four speakers, with an integrated ski tow. Navigation is handled by a Simrad NSS12 EVO3S multifunction display with 12-inch touchscreen, built-in GPS, sonar hub, and wireless connectivity.
Additional equipment includes trim tabs with indicator switch, a telescoping four-step boarding ladder, 6 stainless drink holders, and a galvanized anchor with 200 feet of rope and 15 feet of chain in a bow locker. The boat carries a five-year premium limited component warranty and a limited lifetime hull warranty.
