As large center-consoles grow in popularity, so too does the need for high-end seating, tackle storage and other amenities. Toward that purpose, Nautical Design’s new Premier model comes with bench-style seating, dual and triple flip-up bolster seats with outside folding arms, a tackle-storage system with hanging lure racks, terminal-tackle trays, leader-spool holders, knife-and-plier storage, drawers and a drop-down rigging table. Options include a center cooler that slides out on an aluminum/stainless track; front-loading refrigerator or freezer; and a flip-up, aft-facing bench. Nautical Design works with builders, boat owners and dealers to customize gelcoat, upholstery and unit size. The Premier costs $6,500.
