Walkaround Versus Express Boats
Which style of boat is right for your type of fishing?
By
Saltwater Sportsman Staff
Updated: April 3, 2013
Should you go with an express/cuddy cabin model or a walkaround?
Express styling in boats maximizes space.
Walkarounds provide a safe path forward.
Optimal Platform: Larger walkarounds offer unrestricted fishing space in both the bow and the stern.
Wide Alleys: If you’re considering a walkaround design, make sure the pathways are adequately large.
Tight Cabins: If you don’t need a large cabin area, even smaller walkarounds can provide excellent fishability.
