Fishing? Well, her layout follows that of the classic New England “bass boat.” Remove the stern seat and the cockpit offers plenty of room for trolling, livelining, and jigging. Add a bow rail and an anchor roller and it’s easy (and safe) to go forward to set an anchor. There’s space under the gunwales for rod racks, the gunwales can accommodate up to four rod holders, and Seaway can plumb one of the bases of the helm and companion seats for a livewell. She can even fish pots.

         One 21 Seafarer owner we know, a resident of the State of Maine, successfully works five lobster traps on his recreational license (he drapes an industrial rubber mat over his starboard washboards for protection). The 21 Seafarer is a real head-turner. A choice of hull tints, canvas colors, and teak trim around the windshield and seats set off her lovely Downeast lines. She’s built to last, a boat a family can be proud of for years.
