The 28 Gravois Bay is a fully custom, hybrid bay boat with offshore capabilities and blistering 70+ MPH speed, thanks to a proven hull design and twin engine options up to 600 total HP. Like all Metal Sharks, the 28 Gravois Bay is built to last. The hull is made using heavy plates of military-grade 5086 aluminum alloy that have been digitally cut, expertly welded, and flawlessly crafted to create sleek lines that rival those of the finest fiberglass boats on the water. Factor in the 28 Gravois Bay’s rugged durability and 30+ year hull life, and there’s really no comparison.

Owners of Gravois boats refer to them as “lifetime hulls” and with good reason. Invest in a 28 Gravois Bay and say goodbye to gelcoat issues, stringer and transom worries, and all of the other annoyances of delicate fiberglass boats. Not only have the legendary Gravois construction methods been proven through decades of use and abuse by demanding anglers, but Metal Sharks are in service with the US Navy, Coast Guard, Army, and Air Force and offer proven dependability. With a Gravois hull you’ll spend more time enjoying your boat, and far less time fussing over it. After all would you rather be out fishing, or back on land, waxing your boat?

The 28 Gravois Bay’s welded aluminum console puts the driver in total control. The strategic placement of the custom helm seat and footrest, throttle, and stainless steel Edson steering wheel with tilt helm all combine to keep you in command even when the going gets rough. There’s plenty of room for the installation of the latest electronics, and the large acrylic windshield provides protection while offering superb visibility. A wide range of custom tops and seats are available, allowing Metal Shark to uniquely tailor each 28 Gravois Bay to the exacting requirements of its owner.

The Gravois family has over 30 years’ experience in building custom fishing machines for demanding anglers. Whether stalking redfish on the inshore flats, drifting the inlet for tarpon, or blasting offshore with pelagic action in mind, you’ll find we know the game and speak the language. The 28 Gravois Bay has been designed with a no-nonsense layout that is easy to fish and easy to maintain, with multiple configurations available to suit a wide range of piscatorial pursuits. Free from the limits of fiberglass tooling, prospective Metal Shark owners can dare to dream. Customs livewells, coolers, and hatches? No problem! With 100% digital design and computer-controlled routers, customization is merely a click away.

The 28 Gravois Bay is available in multiple configurations, with different options allowing the boat to serve completely different missions. The boats shown here have been rigged to fish, with low freeboard and streamlined layout allowing for easy 360-degree fishability. From trolling motor and dual power poles to the integration of a Seakeeper gyro stabilization system, each 28 Gravois Bay may be custom rigged to meet the demanding requirements of individual owners.
