2005 Glacier Bay 3470 Ocean Runner
A new listing, this 2005 Glacier Bay 3470 Ocean Runner is up-to-date and ready for cruising, overnighting, and great SW Fishing. Slipped at our Marina and ready to show by setting an appointment with the Listing Broker, Bob Fowler.

Glacier Bay engineered an excellent rigging and tackle station in the portside cockpit module. When you open the station up, tackle trays fold down automatically. You also get a 47-gallon lighted livewell with an aquarium window.
The cockpit - as you'd expect on a cat - offers tons of fishing space with removable coaming pads all around that met me at the upper thigh. About the only shortcoming from a fishing standpoint is the height of the freeboard around the cockpit. If you want to revive a stressed fish prior to releasing it, it's a bit of a stretch to the water's surface when leaning over the rail. However, I have an answer to this. The transom door is large enough to lie down in, and with the tunnel right there, well you can easily see that holding a fish on centerline while idling forward is easier than on a standard monohull.
Glacier Bay provides four rod holders in the gunwales. More can be mounted across the stern and in the side gunwales. With props so far apart and a tunnel in the center, this boat backs down and spins on a fish better than most.
Design and ConstructionConceived in the harsh reality of the Pacific Northwest, Glacier Bay bows needed to withstand collisions with submerged logs. Consequently, the company reinforces all its boats' stems with Kevlar and six to 10 layers of premium E-glass 24-ounce woven roving. The Kevlar runs the full length of the stem and wraps around to the keel. A foam-filled double bottom creates a virtually impregnable, watertight compartment in the bow. Stretching aft are more foam-filled compartments separated by watertight bulkheads. The rest of the hull is solid fiberglass almost an inch thick.
You'll find quite elegant accommodations below deck with an interesting new feature: A retractable bulkhead affords the master stateroom access to the guest stateroom - in case you want to check up on your offspring.
Despite two individual hulls obviously narrower than a single monohull, living space aboard the Glacier Bay 3470 is most comfortable, even for people of well above average size.
