2018 MMTL Apxpt20

Step aboard the APXPT20 and you’ll notice how much thought went into the fishing footprint. The raised casting platforms forward and aft give you clean, uncluttered space to work a line, while the wide, stable stance of the pontoons lets you move around without spooking the crew or the fish. The console layout keeps gauges and switches right where your hand expects them, with clear sightlines when you’re running on a chop. Non-slip decking underfoot stays grippy when wet, and the open rail layout makes it easy to work a net or gaff. Between trips, rinse-downs are simple thanks to easy-to-reach fittings and hardware that’s built to live on the water.

In this region, you need a boat that can handle quick weather changes and mixed water—calm back bays in the morning, open fetch by afternoon. The APXPT20’s stable pontoon platform and center-console layout give you confidence threading shallow channels, then pushing out across wind-blown stretches without beating up your crew. Its efficient 4-stroke pairs well with longer runs between fuel docks, and the open deck plan means you can switch from fishing to family cruising in minutes. With plenty of room to spread out gear yet a manageable overall size for trailering and storage, it suits the varied ramps, marinas, and tucked-away launches common in this area.
