22 Founded in 2011, Bonefish is known for its line of technologically advanced fish- ing boats that work as good as they look. Bonefish boats are built using state of the art techniques that yield unrivaled fit and finish. It’s time you enjoyed the quality and prestige of a custom boat. It’s time you stepped up to a Bonefish. Our entry into the hybrid bay boat mar- ket is finally here. This boat is a stunning departure from a traditional bay boat lay- out. We took over two years to design the Malvado’s aggressive styling and complex running surface, and included new fea- tures like multiple helm options, seating for up to 10 people, up to three baitwells (front and back wells are standard), an extra-large fish box, lockable rod storage, coaming bolsters, jack plate, tons of stor- age and an enclosed head. The under gun- nel rod storage is even unique, accommo- dating fully assembled fly rods. The result is a boat with superior per- formance, ergonomics and versatility. Designed for both inshore and near shore applications, the Malvado’s ventilated twin step v-pad hull produces better speed, ef- ficiency, stability and handling than her competition. At over twenty-five feet long, she is a super stable platform that handles open bays and near shore trips with ease. A hull draft of only 13” gives her access to the skinny stuff, while the sharp entry and flared bow shed water when running in chop. The Malvado 26’ features an am- ple front deck with storage and integrated seating, as well as a large aft deck with jump seats and storage. If you’re looking for the best hybrid bay boat on the mar- ket…you’ve found it. Standard building materials include high grade, uv-resistant epoxy vinyl es- ter resin (AshlandTM AME6001), Divi- nycellTM and/or AircellTM foam coring combined with either PenskeTM or Coo- saTM transom board. Hand-laid bi-axial knitted aramid (KevlarTM) in addition to fiberglass and carbon fiber are standard laminate materials. The combination of highgrade resin and superior laminates makes Bonefish boats both light and strong. The quality fit and finish com- bined with superior grade components make a Bonefish boat the perfect choice for a discriminating fisherman. HOOKED UP SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2017 hookedupdesigns.com
