2021 Sea Hunt Ultra 265 SE

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the 265 SE squeezes big-boat thinking into a trailerable footprint. The wide console hides a surprisingly usable head compartment with room to change, stash gear, and keep the crew comfortable on long days. Aft, the foldaway bench converts the cockpit from fishing arena to social zone in seconds, while the transom walkthrough makes it easy for kids and pets to move to the swim platforms. High gunwales and deep freeboard give a secure, “inside the boat” feel when seas get lumpy. Add in the hardtop shade, plenty of dry storage, and thoughtfully placed grab rails, and this Ultra is set up for full-family days that start with an early troll and finish with sunset cruising.

Waters here demand a hull that’s equally at home crossing open fetch and idling into tight, shallow coves, and the Ultra 265 SE hits that balance. The sharp entry and substantial bow flare soften the chop, while the relatively modest draft lets you nose up to beaches and sandbars when the tide drops. Twin 150s provide reassuring redundancy offshore yet remain efficient for long no-wake zones and harbor runs. The center console layout keeps sightlines clear in busy channels, and the hardtop offers welcome shade when the summer sun reflects off the water. It’s a smart match for boaters who split their time between nearshore runs, family cruising, and casual inshore fishing.
