Hewes Redfisher 18

Stock # 181845
2003 Hewes Redfisher 18. Yamaha 115HP Gasoline Engine with 86 Hours.

The Hewes Redfisher 18 is a proven, shallow-water flats boat known for its clean ride, efficient hull, and classic Hewes build quality. This example is powered by a low-hour Yamaha 115hp 2-stroke with only 86 original hours, making it an exceptionally strong candidate for anglers looking for reliability without modern four-stroke weight or complexity.

The boat is fully functional, mechanically sorted, and turnkey. Cosmetics are honest—gelcoat would benefit from a fresh wax—but all systems are operational and well maintained.
