Sailfish 312 CC

The 312 CC is the latest example of Sailfish's design prowess.

Sailfish 312 CC

Each Sailfish boat I've tested demonstrates one overarching principle: The company's design team consists of experienced saltwater anglers and accomplished skippers. This wealth of knowledge leads to features and building techniques that favor hardcore fishability, exemplary seakeeping abilities in the roughest waters, and the durability to support an extended warranty and make owners proud for decades to come. Just as important, Sailfish keeps family and crew comfort in mind, making its boats ideal candidates for boaters with diverse views of recreation afloat.

In a sea full of center-console sport-fishers, finding one that stands out in the fleet requires the builder to pay special attention to making the deck suitable for doing battle against big game. Sailfish knew how to check all those boxes in the design and construction of the new 312 CC.

Rod holders abound and are conveniently located, but not overdone like in some vessels. Fourteen rod holders, including six shotgun holders, are arranged around the cockpit. Five are located in the hardtop, and there are two kingfish rod holders, one each to port and starboard. Those are particularly important for kingfish, obviously, but they are also handy when bump-trolling with liveys for pelagics such as mahi or sailfish. Also built into the hardtop are backing plates to receive outriggers, either as factory-installed options or aftermarket accessories.

You'll find 62 gallons of combined livewell capacity between the portside transom livewell and the leaning-post well. Keep pitch baits in one and pilchards in the other. They are rounded inside to improve bait movement, well-aerated, and covered with acrylic lids for easy observation.
