Overview
The new Beneteau Antares 8 outboard promises an unprecedented experience for fishing enthusiasts. The sleek, stunning, and sporty design of the Beneteau Antares 8 Fishing version, combined with an impressive 250-horsepower outboard engine, guarantees you the ultimate recreational boating experience. Designed for physically demanding fishing trips, Antares 8 Fishing has an open cockpit that makes it easier to move around the boat.
The rear bench seat from the Cruising version is replaced by a fishing station that comes with professional-grade rod holders. In addition to the recirculating livewell tank, the Beneteau Antares 8 Fishing version also has three storage compartments under the cockpit sole, one of which can take a fish box. Rod holders are fitted into the freeboards, and also on the roof’s hardtop extension. The roof can be fitted with a 12-inch display used to survey fishing grounds. There is also a search spotlight in the rear, and a LED light at the front for better nighttime visibility.
