The Kate Elizabeth is a very stable, open fishing platform with a full head (toilet), shower, galley and comfortable seating. She accommodates up to 6 guests, with 4 being the "sweet spot" — everyone gets room to work a rod without crowding the rail.
Twin Honda BF 250 outboards and a 300+ mile range put the offshore banks, the Coronado Islands and Catalina all within reach in a single run, while 104 gallons of live bait capacity keeps the tank healthy all day long.
