Salesman Remarks
This revolutionary designed 40’ sportfish offers many features not before found on this sized boat. Ocean Yachts was the first to offer such a large master stateroom, double bed guest ststeroom, side companion way, cockpit engine room access, center bridge ladder, factory hardtop and nearly complete factory outfitting are just a few of those innovations. With only 2670 hours, Bayou Bandit should offer many more years of fun and she is ready to go!
