Angler 195

There are a couple of Australian-built hulls that have survived over the years with little change to shape and internal design. One of them is 195 Angler which has been around for years and continues to sell well in the marketplace. This boat is 19-and-a-half-foot in length and the topside is a cuddy cabin style with open access back into the cockpit. If fishing in the subtropics, this style is well suited and remains quite airy.

The hull features reverse chines that are about 120mm wide at the stern giving good stability when dead in the water. It also has a tapered planing plank running forward to about one-third of the way along the keel line which assists in improved holeshot. The topside shell slopes away to the edge of the gunwales around the cabin, subsequently anchor well access is through a hatch in the cuddy cabin roof. When one has their torso through the aperture of this hatch the anchor well is close and handy.

The anchor well is large and will hold plenty of ground tackle which may be fed over a bowsprit that is fixed onto the bow with four stainless steel bolts.

Excellent sea going vessel - perfect for both offshore and inshore use with large deck space for fishing.
