Everglades FAQs
What Everglades models does Bluewater Marine carry?
Everglades is carried at our Jacksonville showroom, where we stock the brand’s center console lineup along with hybrid models and crossover boats that add cabin space for extended trips.
Because Everglades production numbers are limited compared to higher-volume brands, contact us for the most accurate picture of current center console and crossover availability.
What makes an Everglades different from other center consoles?
Everglades builds around a patented RAMCAP hull construction process, which uses a high-density foam core between the hull and liner for added rigidity and flotation. The result is a boat that’s built to remain afloat even if the hull is breached, which is a meaningful selling point for anglers who spend a lot of time running offshore.
That construction, combined with premium fit and finish, is why Everglades tends to sit at the top of the price range among center consoles, and why owners often describe the ride as noticeably smoother and more solid than more mass-produced alternatives.
What's the difference between an Everglades center console and one of their crossover models?
A traditional Everglades center console keeps the open, 360-degree deck layout that anglers want for fishing and mobility. The newer crossover models add enclosed cabin space on top of that same hull and construction, giving you a place to get out of the weather or spend a night aboard without giving up the fishability of the center console layout.
If fishing is the primary use, the standard center console keeps things simple. If you want the option of overnighting or riding out weather on longer trips, the crossover line is worth a look.
Are Everglades boats good for offshore fishing out of Jacksonville?
Yes. The RAMCAP hull and deep-V construction are built for the kind of offshore running anglers do out of Mayport and the Jacksonville-area inlets, and the unsinkable hull design gives serious offshore fishermen extra peace of mind when conditions turn rougher than forecast.
How does an Everglades compare to a Tidewater center console?
Both are strong options at our Jacksonville showroom, but they sit at different points in the market. Tidewater offers foam-filled construction and a Carolina Flare bow at a more accessible price, making it a great entry point into serious inshore and nearshore fishing. Everglades’ RAMCAP hull and premium finish push it into a higher price bracket, aimed at buyers who want the most capable offshore platform available and are willing to pay for it.
Our team can walk you through both side by side based on how far offshore you typically run and what you’re looking to spend.
What maintenance does an Everglades need in Northeast Florida's saltwater environment?
Rinsing the hull, deck hardware, and engine with fresh water after every trip is the most important habit for protecting an Everglades from saltwater corrosion, especially given the amount of stainless hardware and rigging on these boats. Regular anode checks and staying current on engine service intervals will help the boat hold its value and performance over the long run.
Our Jacksonville service team can handle this maintenance locally, so your Everglades stays in the same condition it left the showroom in.
Can I schedule a demo of an Everglades boat?
Yes, you can schedule a demo to run an Everglades before you buy, or visit our Jacksonville showroom to see current inventory in person.
Does Bluewater Marine offer financing on Everglades boats?
Yes, financing is available for new and pre-owned Everglades models. Given the higher price point of this brand, our team can walk through term options and manufacturer programs that may help make the purchase more manageable.
Can I trade in my current boat toward an Everglades purchase?
Yes. We offer trade-in valuations both online and in the showroom, which can meaningfully offset the cost of stepping up to an Everglades.
Who do I contact for more information on Everglades inventory?
