Yellowfin 26 Hybrid — As contributor Karl Anderson said in his boat review, "This versatile boat is as well suited for fishing large bays as it is for nearshore wrecks in open water, affording anglers countless jigging, sight-casting and fly-fishing opportunities. Whether blasting out for a couple hours of fishing before dinner or trailer-ing for a weekend somewhere, she’d be perfect for the job."Christopher Balogh
