Here are some key advantages: Enhanced Fishability: Contender boats are renowned for their fishing-focused design. A 35-foot model provides a spacious and uncluttered cockpit, offering ample room for multiple anglers to move freely and fish effectively. Features like large insulated fish boxes, multiple livewells (often with dedicated pumps), numerous rod holders, and a bait prep station are typically standard or available. The side console design further maximizes the usable space in the cockpit compared to a center console of the same length. Comfort and Amenities: Unlike pure fishing machines, a side console configuration on a 35-foot Contender often allows for a more comfortable cabin. These models frequently include amenities like sleeping berths for several people (potentially up to four), a full galley with a refrigerator and microwave, an enclosed head (toilet) with a shower, and sometimes a removable dining table. This makes the boat suitable for overnight trips and provides a comfortable retreat from the elements.   Good Performance and Range: With a 35-foot length, these Contenders are typically powered by twin outboard engines (often in the 250-350 HP range each), providing excellent speed and offshore capabilities. A substantial fuel capacity (often around 300-400 gallons) translates to a good cruising range, allowing access to distant fishing grounds. The deep-V hull design that Contender is known for ensures a smooth and relatively dry ride, even in rougher sea conditions.   Versatility: The 35-foot Contender side console strikes a balance between a dedicated fishing boat and a comfortable cruiser. It's well-suited for serious offshore fishing tournaments, weekend trips with family and friends, and even some light cruising. The comfortable seating forward of the console and the well-appointed cabin enhance its versatility beyond just fishing. Storage: These boats typically offer significant storage space, including large in-deck fish boxes that can also be used for general storage, storage under seating, and a large compartment often accessible from the helm deck. This is crucial for stowing fishing gear, safety equipment, and provisions for longer trips. Integrated Features: Contender often integrates features like a dive platform, transom door for easy access to the water, and raw-water washdown systems, all contributing to the boat's functionality for both fishing and recreational activities.   While there might be some minor trade-offs compared to a pure center console (such as potentially less walkaround space around the console), the 35-foot Contender side console offers a compelling package for those who prioritize a blend of serious fishing capabilities with onboard comfort and the ability to undertake overnight trips.
