2015 Robalo R305 Walkaround

Step aboard and you’ll immediately notice how deep and secure the cockpit feels, with high gunwales that keep crew comfortable when seas pick up. The wide helm seating gives you clear sightlines and room for a companion to ride alongside, and the hardtop with integrated lighting and rod storage keeps everything organized overhead. Down below, the mid-berth is surprisingly generous for a 30-footer, giving kids or extra guests a private spot to crash. Robalo’s heavy, bluewater hull design gives this walkaround a solid, confident ride, so you’re more inclined to stretch your range instead of hugging the shoreline. It’s a boat that feels bigger than its length when you’re offshore, yet still manageable to dock and handle shorthanded.

This R305 Walkaround excels where waters can change from flat calm to choppy in a single outing. The deep-V hull and substantial weight deliver a composed ride on open bays, inlets, and nearshore runs, while the walkaround layout lets you move forward safely when working lines or anchoring over reefs and wrecks. Twin outboards provide the speed to hop between sandbars, fishing spots, and waterfront restaurants in a day, yet the cabin and enclosed head mean you can comfortably overnight on the hook. With ample shade, secure freeboard, and family-friendly seating, it’s equally at home chasing pelagics offshore or spending a relaxed afternoon exploring local islands and backwaters.
