Unsophisticated investors.
I was thinking the same thing. People get boats for fishing, wake boarding, etc. Boats are designed and marketed around this purposes. I don’t see the market for this at that size. Am I missing something?
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a boat at that size that’s not a bowrider.
This feels like it’s designed and marketed for electric vehicle lovers rather than boat users

Exactly, I don't see how this can compete with a nautique for wakeboarding or riva for cruising, and it's definitley not a fishing boat.
This seems like a boat designed by people who don't get boating, for an audience that doesn't really care about boats.

Recreational fishing
That’s a poor layout for fishing. Fishing boats will be on rough water and need to be a bigger boat setup for down rigging and other stuff or be on a smaller body of water where you need access to to all edges easily and have a second trolling motor.
This’s is not for fishing

Dang, better sell my boat then
What market segment is it trying to play in? I don't think I've ever really seen a 24 foot closed-bow boat.
