This Contender 36 Open is a real money maker. Originally used as a charter fishing boat and recently for personal use, it has been well maintained and recently serviced. Everything on this rig works except the port side fuel gage. This is a fast, aggressive offshore boat and with 410 gallon fuel capacity can really get you out there!

If you qualify as a truly hard-core offshore fisherman, you won’t find a more complete, better-designed fishing platform than this Contender. Two above-deck livewells in the transom augment another in the cockpit sole. Huge in-deck fish boxes outboard on both sides can handle numerous large tuna.

At first glance, it’s surprising to find no under-gunwale rod storage as standard equipment. Further investigation reveals five vertical rod holders on each side of the helm console, four more across the back of the T-top, five across leaning post back and racks for seven rods in each of two large in-deck compartments forward of the console. Of course, with many avid kite fishermen as owners, Contender mounts five in-gunwale holders along each side, with optional under-gunwale outlets for electric reels.
I found an amazing amount of room alongside the console – enough for two large anglers with fish on to pass each other. I also marveled at the security in a rough sea. No matter where you stand aboard the Contender 36, if you start to lose your balance, there’s something close at hand to grab onto and a place to plant your feet.
As an example of attention to fishing detail, bow gunwale heights have been designed with spinning reels in mind. An average adult can reel down on a fish (remember, the reel is below the rod) and not bang the reel into the deck.
Finally, thanks to the boat’s weight and size, one engine in gear provides a perfect live-bait speed.
