I’m looking for a 2660 or would even consider a 2360 with twin 150s. I want to stay under $60k for 2660 or under $50k for 2360, no bottom paint, no 2 strokes, only twin engines and no 266/236s. I’d consider a 240/270 but seems like they may be out of price range. Prefer twin electronics but can always deal with that later if the price is right.
I was looking at the McKee Craft Freedom 24 but they are hard to come by and the ones that have been for sale in the last 6 months have nearly doubled in price from what was on the market previous to that. I know everything is more now but these were going for 35/40 and now they’re listing closer to 65/70. Seems like the sailfish boats have stayed more reasonable and I use to own a 236 so I’m familiar with them.

My brother in law had a cherry McKee 24, great boat, great ride, well built, 3 piece and foam filled but felt small inside compared to my 2660. The 9' beam on the 2360 and 2660 vs 8'6" on the McKee helps with cockpit space. Still love .y 2660.

That’s why I’m leaning more towards the 2660. Plus I have two small kids and will probably not use this as a dedicated fishing boat like my last one. So forward seating will be more useful.

That looks like a clean well outfitted boat.

Yeah I’m just waiting for him to respond to my message. Hoping that it’s not already sold.

Thanks! I’m going to Tampa Wednesday to hopefully secure the first one that was posted.
