Defiance Boats arrive at Riverfront Marine.

The wait is over and we are pleased to announce the arrival of 3 models from Defiance Boats. 

Defiance Boats are the perfect fishing machine with warm dry cabins for the life on the northeast waters as well as a deep vee design to handle the wind and waves that can come up offshore. The Center Console models offer an excellent layout to move about the boat when hooked up on a fish. Whatever model you choose; a Defiance Boat will give you the toughness and dependability you deserve. Composite construction, excellent fit and finish and a Limited Lifetime structural warranty on each boat. Defiance is built to commercial standards and it shows.

On Display: Admiral 220

The Admiral 220 is a great size for anglers who want big-water capability in a package that’s easy to manage at the dock, at the ramp, and on the trailer. Step inside the cabin and you’ll immediately notice how the layout supports a full day on the water: protection from the elements when you need it, and practical space for gear when you don’t.

• Cabin comfort for early departures, late runs home, and weather changes that seem to arrive out of nowhere.
• Thoughtful fishing flow with space to work rods, nets, and tackle without feeling crowded.
• Storage where it matters so the deck stays clear when the bite turns on.

On Display: Admiral 260

If you’re looking for more room to stretch out, the Admiral 260 delivers additional cockpit space and an even bigger presence offshore. It’s the kind of boat that feels composed when conditions build, and it provides the confidence to stay focused on fishing instead of constantly chasing the most comfortable heading.

• Expanded cockpit for multiple anglers, trolling spreads, and active fights around the boat.
• Upgraded overnight and day-trip potential with a cabin that’s ready for long runs and longer days.
• Serious offshore attitude for crews who want to fish farther and come home comfortably.

In Inventory: Catalina 240 Center Console

The Catalina 240 is an easy boat to appreciate the moment you walk around it. With a center console configuration, the deck space stays open and functional, making it simple to follow a fish around the bow and keep lines clear when things get busy. It’s also a great choice for mixed-use boating, where one day is dedicated to striped bass and the next is cruising with friends and family.

• Open deck access that supports casting, jigging, trolling, and everything in between.
• Family-friendly seating and comfort so the crew enjoys the ride as much as the fishing.
• Rigging-friendly layout for adding electronics, accessories, and tackle systems that match your style.

What to Look For When You Step Aboard

When you come by to see these models in person, take a few minutes to picture your day on the water from start to finish. Walk the gunwales, open the hatches, and stand where you’ll fish. The details in these boats are meant to be used, not just admired, and it’s worth seeing how the spaces connect from helm to cockpit to bow.

• Helm visibility and ergonomics so you can run comfortably in changing conditions.
• Deck traction and working room for gaffing, netting, and moving safely with a loaded cooler.
• Hardware and hatch feel that reflects the commercial-minded build approach.

Power, Electronics, and Outfitting

Each Defiance can be set up to match how you fish, where you run, and who you bring aboard. Whether your priorities are long-range offshore runs, nearshore versatility, or comfort for mixed-use days, we can walk through practical options for propulsion, electronics packages, and fishing accessories so the boat is ready from day one.

• Electronics planning to support navigation, radar, sonar, and communication needs based on your home waters.
• Fish-ready outfitting including rod storage solutions, deck layouts for your style, and clean rigging routes.
• Comfort and convenience additions that make long days easier without compromising fishability.

Stop in to climb aboard the Admiral 220, Admiral 260, and Catalina 240, and take your time exploring what makes each model unique. If you have a particular way you like to fish—or a specific run you make every season—bring those details with you and we’ll help you match the right layout and setup to the way you actually use your boat.
