2004 Ocean Master Ocean Master 31

The 31 has that classic, no-nonsense Ocean Master hull that feels glued to the water when it’s sloppy and settled when you’re drifting a reef. Step aboard and you’ll notice the deep, secure cockpit, high gunwales, and tons of room to work a fish from bow to stern without dancing around clutter. The wide beam makes her feel bigger than the numbers suggest, and the balanced weight keeps her level on the troll. Storage is generous and thoughtfully laid out, with fish boxes sized for serious pelagics and dry spaces for tackle and gear. She’s the kind of rig you can hose down after a long day and know she’s ready to roll again at first light.

This 31 is particularly well suited to local waters where conditions can swing from flat calm mornings to choppy afternoon runs home. The hull’s offshore pedigree shrugs off short, stacked wind chop while still floating shallow enough to nose into nearshore structure and sandbar stops. It’s an ideal platform for mixed-use days: start by working wrecks and reefs, then slide into the bays for family cruising or sandbar time. The open layout makes it easy to shift from hardcore fishing to casual entertaining, and the efficient twin setup offers the range to explore distant spots without turning fuel planning into a math exercise.
