What Is a Dusky 217 Open Fisherman?
This center console beauty really gets up and goes. Her sleek lines afford ease of entry and a comfortable ride. The Dusky 217 is built with the same strength and rugged integrity as all of our offshore boat and inshore boat models. Dusky 217 is equipped with the Dusky Drive; a unique fiberglass outboard bracket with an integrated swim/dive platform. The Dusky Drive improves maneuverability and stability of your boat while allowing a full transom for safety. Her nearly eight-foot beam makes her perfect for reef hopping, skin diving, water skiing, and light fishing in the backcountry.
