Can't beat an Arima if you're serious about ocean fishing. Incredibly stable fishing platform. Brought me home from some really tough weather, always feel safe in my 21.
Good to see they are being made again.I had 17 boats in my life and the Arima was the best.I had a 16 ft Sea Chaser that was 2 inches short of 8ft. wide.CHEERS from S.W. Vancouver Island!
I downloaded the Arima brochure last night. These are impressive. The same guy who owns Defiance boats bought Arima, apparently. Mind if I ask what you paid for this bad boy? Also, is there enough room in that cuddly for my 5’10” frame to sleep along with my somewhat shorter wife?
@@melodymakermark I paid $50k plus tax With honda 115. Unless you're under 5ft tall this boat would be very uncomfortable. I use the forward area for storage. The sea ranger series has full sized bunks.
@@MrJakemetz that’s a good value. It looks live one helluva boat, like I’d feel safe in it many miles from shore, like a Boston Whaler. Yeah, I’m gonna need something that will offer the Mrs. a reasonable amount of comfort. I wish they’d offer yours with a foot more cuddy and a foot less cockpit, because I absolutely love the looks of this Yellowtail. Congrats, Captain, and enjoy.

17' Arima Seachaser BULLET PROOF 🇺🇸
Looks like the Defiance 195 Yellowtail. Both look great 👍🏾
Sweet!
Nice looking boat
Don Alexs would aprove of your new boat.
Please bring back the Sea explorer.
On the East Coast this would be a perfect striper boat especially if fishing live spot
Can you get these in Australia? Looks like a great boat with good cockpit to cabin ratio
price?
Real fisherman don’t care how much it cost dump ass??
Could this thing get any cheesier?
Yes
I had an Arima for many years, but why don't keep that driver dry? How much would it cost to extend the sides with 10"? just an opinion.
