We had the chance to run Key West's newest model, the 263 FS, and boy did we have a blast! This is Hull #2, a demo boat that has been making its way up and down the east coast to demonstrate how awesome this new model is and how well she performs with the twin 175hp Yamahas. We had the boat for a week and ran some demos, as well as getting some footage to share with you!
This boat was well equipped and laid out beautifully. It was sturdy, comfortable and well thought out. I was anxious to check out the performance with twin 175hp Yamahas and was I impressed! The boat shot up out of the hole to plane quickly and seamlessly, and topped out for us just under 50mph.
The 263FS represents the latest and largest of Key West Boat's growing fleet of Family Sportsman Boats. This model is packed full of the latest innovations in design and performance to provide the active outdoors family with all they could ask for on the water. Standard features include an under deck windlass, hardtop, side entry door with hidden ladder, power assist steering, folding bolster leaning post, dual live wells, and much more. Going fishing? It has 22 rod holders not including the horizontal storage racks under the gunnels that can hold your longest saltwater rods. That's more than most dedicated fishing boats in this class. Staying inshore and enjoying a cruise? 16 cup holders and a carry aboard cooler. Access to the beautifully lined and assembled bilge components is large enough to allow a full grown man to crawl in completely and sit down. You can power it with twin outboards up to 500hp, but it will run in the mid 40mph range with a single 300hp engine for economical and relaxing days in the lake or on the open sea. With Key West Boats positive upright flotation in each model your family is always safe.
