When you are shopping around for the best fishing boat to fit your needs and budget, it’s best to do as much research as you can to ensure you are making the best possible decision. However, the research phase can be overwhelming. With so much information being thrown your way, it can be hard to keep information straight. At the end of the day, you don’t want a sales pitch: you want a straightforward answer as to what this boat is best at so you can see how those strengths align with your needs.
The 2400 Purebay offers many different features that make it optimal both for families interested in an economical option that accommodates all of your family members and professional anglers seeking out a boat that is capable and versatile enough to keep up with the competition. Here, we have highlighted five of this boat’s most prominent features: its value, large deck space, intuitive design, versatility, and no-nonsense pricing.
Best Value on the Market
The 2400 Purebay offers premium features at a bargain price, making it the ultimate value for the blue-collar angler. The standard model of this boat comes with a Suzuki DF 300 APX engine. For even more bang for your buck, the 2400 Purebay also offers a Pro Package featuring many of the most popular options selected when customizing your own model.
The 2400 Purebay Pro Package includes a fiberglass T-Top, Simrad Evo 3 9-inch depth finder, and a Bob’s 10-inch Extreme Gen3 jack plate. It also comes with either a white or black powder coat package on the anodized metal work, and a hull color of your choice. These premium features are added at a major discount on this boat, making the 2400 Purebay the best value on the market.
Large Deck Space
A large percentage of this boat’s surface area is dedicated to deck space, allowing you to stand on pretty much any surface of the boat comfortably during a long trip. Every inch of deck space across the 24-foot 5-inch boat is optimized for spending long days on the water without feeling cramped.
The deck is also versatile. Two additional seats featured along the back of the boat can convert between a comfortable seat and deck space by simply folding down the chair and securing it closed. All of the containers are designed with the same sturdy hardware, meaning you can store anything you need without any concern of standing on the compartment lids. Additionally, the surface of the deck is textured to prevent slipping and sliding.
Intuitive Design for First-Time Anglers
Whether you are new to the fishing world or are raising the next generation of great anglers, this boat’s intuitive design is perfect for those getting used to their sea legs. Every part of this design is intuitive, making it as easy to navigate this boat on day one as it is on day one-hundred.
The front deck storage is symmetrical, with a rod holder to the left and right; and two large multipurpose compartments in the center. There is also additional storage both in the nose of the boat, and in the floor right in front of the center console’s front-facing seat.
The sides of the boat are designed to optimize space. There is enough space to comfortably walk around while still making room for rod holders tucked along the sides of the boat. These compliment the back deck well, which also features plenty of storage along with additional flip-up seating and cupholders at every convenient spot you can reach.
Even the optional hard T-top features intuitive design. Right between the speakers featured at each of the four corners of the T-top are two storage compartments perfect for storing your personal items as well as a phone charger for long days on the water.
All together, the 2400 Purebay offers the optimal design for those looking to spend the day fishing, whether among the company of your friends and family or as a professional angler.
Versatility for Shallows and Depths
The 2400 Purebay is designed to handle everything from one-foot shallow water to choppy offshore waves. This boat shares this trait with many of our other boat models, including the 675 Ultimate Bay. This versatile design enables you to get more bang for your buck, as you are able to navigate a wider range of waterways with the same boat.
No-Nonsense Pricing
The base model for the 2400 Purebay comes with a Suzuki DF 300 APX engine and has a starting price of $72,911. This base model includes all of the features we have already discussed so far as well as amenities designed to make your fishing experience comfortable and competition-ready.
Many of the comfort features come standard across several of our boat models including quality pleated seating, cupholders, rod holders by every seat, and a textured deck to prevent slipping and sliding. There are also many features that are perfect for the professional angler including space for over 15 different rods, ample storage space for different baits and equipment, and a livewell connected to the front of the center console.
