At Fish Tale Boats, we understand the unique demands of boating in our region. The R257's Hydro Lift™ hull, featuring a 23-degree deadrise, is meticulously designed to slice through the chop of the Gulf of Mexico and the bay, delivering a remarkably smooth and dry ride. This advanced hull design ensures that your excursions, whether it's a nearshore fishing trip for snapper and grouper or a leisurely cruise along the coast, are as comfortable as they are exhilarating. With an overall length of 25 feet 3 inches and a generous 8-foot 10-inch beam, the R257 offers impressive stability at rest and underway, making it a confident platform for everything from casting a line to enjoying a sunset cocktail.

This Robalo is more than just a fishing boat; it's a true multi-purpose vessel. The dual-console layout provides excellent wind protection for the helm and passenger, while the spacious bow area, complete with an optional table, transforms into an inviting social hub for picnics and relaxation. With seating for up to 11 passengers, there's ample room for everyone to enjoy a day on the water. The R257's thoughtful design includes abundant storage, insulated fish boxes, and a dedicated head compartment, ensuring convenience and comfort for all aboard. Powered by an optional single 400 HP engine, you can expect swift acceleration and cruising speeds that make reaching your favorite fishing spots or secluded coves a breeze, all while enjoying substantial range thanks to its 165-gallon fuel tank.
