25′ Coastal Explorer

The 25-foot 251 CE Coastal Explorer center console is in a class by itself, a surpassing answer to other larger shallow water boats. Notably, the 251 is created for inshore use primarily as a sport fishing boat and offers more offshore, rough water capability than any bay boat. Here’s the best answer to off-the-beaten-track family fun and versatility. For more information or if you have any questions, contact Cannons Marina.

Unlock Your Boating Adventures with the Versatile Grady-White 251 CE

Grady-White’s 251 Coastal Explorer, is a fascinating blend of features. It combines the exceptional ride elements from their larger offshore models with the angler-friendly design of inshore coastal boats. The result is a bay-style boat that’s truly remarkable in its capabilities. These boats are primarily designed for anglers in mind who enjoy shallow-water fishing. They typically have a casting deck at the bow and low gunnels, making it easy for anglers to access the water when reeling in their catch. The advantage of these boats is their shallow draft, allowing them to navigate in skinny inshore waters.

The Grady-White 251 CE has the ability to navigate into waters as shallow as just 14 inches and can comfortably cross challenging open water expanses to reach those inshore hotspots. The Grady-White 251 CE isn’t just your average inshore boat; it’s a versatile and rugged vessel that seamlessly transitions from offshore adventures to inshore fishing, offering the best of both worlds for boating enthusiasts.

Coastal Explorer 251

Looked at the rest (gave them a shot) then went back to the best!

This is our second Grady, we tried another brand and were disappointed in many aspects - we then traded it in for the 251. The Grady-White 251 Coastal Express excels in fishability and has a very well-designed hull for superior performance and comfort in the rough stuff. Its layout combines functionality with great looks. Big kudos to the Naples Boat Mart team for their outstanding sales and service, making this boat purchase another top-notch experience!

Family Time

I have 17 grandkids who love to visit the coast, and this boat allows us to spend more time on the water; with the nice seating arrangement, the front folding ladder sand baring has become much easier. Love it.

4th Coastal Explorer and Still Happy!

My wife and I just purchased our fourth new Grady-White Coastal Explorer and we are very happy. The Coastal Explorer fits our family and the way we boat. We enjoy cruising and entertaining, anchoring up for the day at the island, and the occasional overnight trip in to visit some of our favorite destinations like Beaufort, NC, Bald Head Island, NC, and Charleston, SC. Our dealer, Atlantic Marine in North Carolina, has been provided an exceptional experience each time!
