Freedom 285

Luxurious Boat and Experience

The perfect boat. Joy Stick technology is out of this world amazing! Docking at our favorite restaurant is a breeze and getting to the fishing spot is so much fun with the autopilot. Everything about the boat is luxurious from the leather seats, to bathroom finishes and fixtures. My husband bought the boat to fish but I bought it to ride in style. It's a perfect meet in the middle boat that goes beyond both of our expectations. We are so happy that we chose Grady and would highly recommend.
