Tarpon 26

The Hybrid Class Leader - one of the most versatile fishing boats on the market. The Tarpon 26 combines the ride and stability of a traditional offshore boat with the shallow draft/running capability of a flats boat. With a sharp entry and delta pad aft, the Tarpon 26 is fast and efficient, yet able to maintain a steady, smooth ride when the seas pick up. The Tarpon 26 was born using new techniques in computer-aided design (CAD) by pushing the envelope in creativity. The performance measures show on every sea trial. A full transom with a hydraulic bracket allows you to not only run safely in the shallows but to also tune your motor and prop for ride and efficiency. From the carefully designed hull to the unique shear, this boat gets the looks... and gets you there. The Tarpon 26 comes standard with a feature-rich selection of top quality hardware and materials. Build your dream boat every step of the way. Andros Boatworks designs boat with their customers from choosing a color to mounting hardware. Every boat is built unique for you every step of the way. Begin your next adventure in the Tarpon 26.
