2013 Helms 21 Full Transom

Wonderful example of a well maintained 2013 Helms 21 w/ Full Transom. The 133 hour Evinrude E-Tec 250HP hangs from a hydraulic Porta Bracket complete with Lenco trim tabs allowing for the ultimate in versatility. Livorsi gauges and dual lever controls complete this great performance package. The Helms 21 is an excellent boat for inshore and offshore use. Her knife-like entry tames the seas and her variable degree hull design gives you access to back country water you could not even dream of in a deep V-hull. Step aboard a Helms 21 and you will notice that she is very stable. Push the throttle forward and hang on as she planes out quickly and cuts through a chop with the ease and comfort of a much bigger boat. Push the throttle wide open and marvel at her speed, 50+mph with most 200hp outboards. Cruising at 4000 rpm, which is roughly 40mph with a 200hp DFI 2-stroke engine, fuel burn is between 6 and 7 gph on average. So with a 96-gallon fuel tank you could go over 550 miles on one tank of fuel. The Helms 21 construction is second to none. The hull is 100% composite and it is hand built. This allows for a very lightweight hull that is incredibly strong. This also translates into better fuel economy and an easier to handle boat. Another advantage is that the tow weight is low allowing most small and mid sized trucks and SUVs to tow it. The hull is almost completely filled with foam for your safety. Every compartment has either a gutter or a watertight hatch. The deck is self-bailing and the cooler and fish boxes drain overboard as well. Pop up cleats and bow light are standard so you don't snag lines or stub toes. Four gunnel rod holders are standard w/ four rod storage is under each gunnel. The two large insulated fish boxes under the forward casting deck drain overboard for easy clean up and have no pumps to break or clog.
