Striper 200 CC-S

The Striper 200 CC-S (LOA: 20′ 2″, Beam: 8′ 2″) is built with the essentials for great days on the water. Akin to its larger brethren, the 200 CC-S comes standard with two in-floor fish boxes for keeping those big catches fresh and a huge lockable center console area for storage.

In addition, the center console offers an option for a Porta-Potti head with pump-out, increasing the convenience and comfort of the boat. The 200 CC-S is built to fish, cruise or even tube, making it an all-around platform for anglers and families. The boat’s bottom design features Striper’s signature V-Trac hull.

The 200 CC-S performs like a bigger vessel and has one of the largest fuel capacities in this class at 91 gallons. Offered standard with a galvanized trailer, owners can take their Striper 200 CC-S to everyday fishing spots or wherever the fish might be biting.

Return to the Center Console Roundup.

The new Striper 270 CC (27’2″ LOA, 9′ beam) is a center console that takes its shape, lines and contours the brand introduced in 2012 from the launch of the popular 22-foot series, including an aggressive bow flair, deep freeboard, tall gunwale cap, and a broad and assertive stance.

Built with the Little Falls, Minnesota-builder’s one-piece Fibercore™ hand-laid composite stringer system, the 270 CC runs solid on the V-Trac™ hull design. This allows for maximum steering control while minimizing shaking or porpoising. The 270 CC is powered by twin engines ranging from 300-500 horsepower in total—enough muscle to take anglers offshore.

The 270 CC was designed to fish. Large port and starboard 34-gallon in-floor fish boxes come standard and are flanked by two 12-gallon, blue-painted, aerated livewells found in each corner of the cockpit. The cockpit can be rigged for comfort and the possible long cruise to the “spot” with optional fold-down bench seats port and starboard. The helm is protected from the weather with a standard fiberglass T-Top with rocket launchers, spreader lights and flat spots to add optional outriggers. The center console pod offers 73 inches of standing room, a lockable storage compartment and room for a porcelain head.
