I've been looking at the 265 express, but in my searches I haven't been able to find the measurements of the dance floor. Does anyone have those by chance?

Thanks,

Sal

Unfortunately it doesn't have the measurements of that area.

Hoping someone with a 265 can post those.

Thanks,

Ryan

Kind of on the same topic. Looking to see if anyone that owns a 265 that runs for albacore uses a 1/2 tote on the deck or just use a large kill bag?

How many tuna can you fit in the insulated fish box?

Thanks,

Ryan

The fish box is huge. The fishbox and livewell are taller than a 5 gallon bucket. I should've taken measurements and pix of that too.
They both drain overboard.

Haven't had the opportunity yet to load it with tuna but did have a 40# and 20# bluefin in there and they were lost in 200#s of ice.
I have had 36 dolphin and 45 seabass, ice, a bucket of chum and a flat of sardines in there with room to spare.

As for deck space, we have been bringing a 165 qt Igloo for bait and a 70 qt for beer & food and they really piss me off.
I really think we could use the livewell for bait/ice and a smaller soft cooler inside the cabin for drinks/food.
Next overnight trip I'm trying that and leaving that beautiful deck clear for fishing.
