Twin engines, Garmin electronics, and 30 miles of Gulf. No ownership required.

NBC Kemah just added its most serious fishing boat yet

Nautical Boat Club Kemah just put a new class of boat on the water. The 2026 Sea Hunt Gamefish 25 is a 26-foot, twin-engine offshore center console built for serious fishing. It is the first of its kind in a boat club fleet anywhere in the Kemah, Clear Lake, or greater Houston market.

This is not a bigger version of a bay boat. It is a different category of boating. Twin Yamaha F150 outboards, a Garmin Force Kraken trolling motor, and a 144-gallon fuel capacity mean members can leave the bay, clear the Galveston jetties, and run up to 30 miles offshore. Nearshore Gulf reefs, wrecks, and oil rigs are now in reach, without owning the boat, the slip, or the maintenance bill.

Built to fish

Dual livewells. Dual macerated fishboxes. Kingfish rod holders. A 9-foot-2-inch beam that stays stable when the swell picks up. This is a boat rigged for a full day of offshore fishing and the ride back.

Electronics and navigation

Dual Garmin 12-inch chartplotters with an integrated VHF radio. The Garmin Force Kraken trolling motor ties directly into the helm displays, with Anchor Lock GPS position hold. Yamaha Helm Master Level 2 digital throttle and electric steering make the twin engines simple to run. A wireless phone charger keeps a device topped off all day.

Comfort on a long day

A freshwater system runs the T-top mister, a shower, and a marine toilet. A side entry door and heavy-duty ladder make getting on and off easy. A windlass anchor system, a telescoping electric bow table, fully cushioned bow seating with a filler cushion and backrests, and a rear fold-up jump seat round it out.

When it's not worth it

Offshore fishing is not for everyone, and that is worth saying plainly. If you only ever plan to cruise the bay, watch the sunset, and pull the kids on a tube, the single-engine center consoles and deck boats in the Kemah fleet already do that beautifully. You do not need a twin-engine offshore boat to enjoy the water.

The Gamefish 25 earns its keep for members who want to fish the Gulf, who want reefs, wrecks, and rigs on the list, not just the bay. If that is you, this boat changes what your membership can do. If it is not, the rest of the fleet has you covered.

What members say

"This club is nothing short of amazing. The staff is as knowledgeable and helpful as can be and the equipment is top-notch. I have learned an incredible amount about boating and caught tons of fish. The experience has just been the best. I recommend this club without hesitation."
— Travis Rodkey, Nautical Boat Club – Kemah (Google Review)

From the captain

"The Gamefish 25 puts us on a totally new level of boating. Its size, creature comforts, and twin engines are features no other boat club in Houston, or Texas in general, will offer."
— Will Turner, Location Manager and Captain, NBC Kemah

What a boat like this costs to own

A 2026 Sea Hunt Gamefish 25, fully rigged with twin Yamahas and a Garmin trolling motor, runs $160,000 to $200,000 new. Then add storage, insurance, maintenance, fuel, and depreciation every year you own it.

Nautical Boat Club members run the same boat, and the entire Kemah fleet with it, for one monthly membership fee. No purchase. No slip. No off-season storage bill. No repair invoices. You show up, the boat is ready, and a captain has already handled the rest.

Common questions

When can I book it?

Now. Reserve the Gamefish 25 like any other NBC Kemah boat through the member booking system. Book an all-day outing, 7am to 8pm, for offshore runs.

Can I run it offshore?

Yes. Members can run up to 30 miles offshore from the Galveston jetties, putting nearshore Gulf reefs, wrecks, and oil rigs in range.

I have never fished before. Is this for me?

It can be. USCG-licensed captains are on staff at all times and provide on-water training on this boat and on the single-engine center consoles. Start in the bay to get comfortable, then push offshore on the twin-engine boats when you are ready.

Does any other boat club offer this?

No. Every other boat club in the Kemah, Clear Lake, and greater Houston market runs single-engine boats only. If offshore Gulf fishing is on your list, NBC Kemah is the only club that puts you there.
