2016 Key West Bay Reef 230 — Premium Bay/Offshore Fishing Center Console. Garmin Electronics!

Overview:
This exceptionally well-maintained 2016 Key West Bay Reef 230 is a standout example of a lightly used bay/reef boat that blends rugged fishing capability with comfortable family-friendly features. Powered by a 250 HP Yamaha SHO with approximately 402 hours, this vessel has been sparingly used — typically only a couple times per year — and has been stored on a lift with a custom cover since new. The engine and hull present in very good to excellent overall condition, reflecting light use and meticulous care.

This Bay Reef 230 delivers shallow-draft performance for back-bay access while offering stable, confidence-inspiring handling offshore. Ideal for anglers targeting inshore species, reef trips, and mixed water use, the package also includes key comfort and convenience upgrades that enhance both fishing and cruising experiences.
