Pursuit’s new DC 306 represents the latest addition to the boatbuilder’s versatile outboard-powered dual-console boats. It incorporates a hardtop with a tempered-glass windshield and a walk-through door for protection from the elements. A horizontal anchor windlass eases anchor deployment and ­retrieval—bring on those secluded coves.

Comfy bow seating includes fold-down armrests, handrails, and coaming trays with cup holders and charging stations. An optional table lets you enjoy meals. Options such as a filler cushion and a sunshade expand entertainment possibilities.

A door in the starboard console opens inboard over the main walkway at the same time a sliding panel recesses into the forward dash for access to the sink, vanity and head. A door on the port console reveals a massive storage area. The companion seat offers foldable armrests, a flip-up bolster and a built-in footrest. The adjustable helm chair can rotate 90 degrees to face port, and a footrest can flip down for extra height while standing at the wheel.

The cockpit boasts a 26-gallon livewell, large in-floor fish boxes and plenty of storage. The aft-facing seat provides tackle storage in a designated area behind the backrest. Lifting the seat cushion reveals an insulated cooler. Four additional rod holders adorn the transom behind the foldaway seat. You can also add a pop-up ski-tow pylon.

A standard side door makes it easy to slide aboard a large fish or take a dip, thanks to a dedicated ladder that can also be used at the bow. The transom and optional portside seats can fold down to create a lounge area with the aft-facing seat. There’s also an optional table.

The starboard-side entertainment center with a fiberglass lid features a sink, faucet and working area, as well as stowage and a trash can. An optional 12-volt DC stainless-steel refrigerator/freezer keeps provisions cold. Fresh- and raw-water washdowns are just aft. Expect the DC 306 to deliver great cruising range thanks to its twin Yamaha F300s and 224-gallon fuel capacity.
