In the early 2000s marine writer Frank Sargeant wrote, "Just what the heck is a family-friendly fishing boat? Usually, it's a fishing-family failure that fits neither bill well. But Hydra-Sports' new 202 DC scores high in both departments - it has the potential to make everyone from hardcore kingfishers to spike-haired kneeboarders happy."

This 202 DC has a custom-built canvas top on a heavy-duty "half-tower" aluminum frame that also serves as a secure "grab bar" in rough conditions The port console has a large enclosed head compartment with 3' 6" of headroom that easily accommodates women and kids. (You'll need to add the porta-potty.)

The bow platform sports good elevation for fish spotting as well as an insulated fish box big enough to handle a full day's catch. And there is a capstan that makes "hauling anchor" a breeze. Add some upholstery and this area becomes a conversation pit, complete with padded backrests.

The transom fulfills a dual mission: The 36-gallon oval livewell in the center makes anglers happy while an integrated swim platform with a flip-down stainless-steel boarding ladder is useful to water skiers, boarders, and swimmers.

Skis and kneeboards-or tackle boxes and gaffs fit neatly into an 8'-long, 1-3/4'-deep locker in the center of the sole. On either side of the motor well are padded jump seats and drink holders.

All hatches on the 202 DC are a composite of fiberglass and foam, and all are secured with piano-type hinges. The stringers and the transom are rot-proof composites, and the boat's running surfaces are reinforced with Kevlar. All hoses are double-clamped, and all through-hulls were replaced and enlarged in 2018, the owner confirms.

Again, back when it was new Sargeant called this boat "a crowd-pleasing combo platter."

If you're looking for a great boat for fishing and family fun that is reasonably priced - this is the one.

You won't be disappointed in this one.
