The 2018 Epic E2 22 Bay is a high-performance fishing vessel known for its lightweight, high-strength construction. Built using advanced vacuum-infusion technology, this boat is designed to be significantly lighter than its competitors while maintaining a rigid, durable hull that excels in both shallow flats and choppy bay waters.
The "Hand Laid" (or hand-laid hull) designation refers to Epic's meticulous lamination process, which ensures an optimal resin-to-fiberglass ratio for maximum structural integrity.
## Description
The Epic E2 22 Bay is a hybrid of performance and utility.1 It features a sleek, aggressive profile with a sharp wave-splitting entry and a moderate deadrise, allowing it to transition smoothly from thin water to the open bay.
The deck is designed with a "fish-first" mentality, featuring massive forward and aft casting platforms.2 A standout feature is the translucent hull strips near the transom, which allow owners to see the resin-infused honeycomb core—a testament to the boat’s high-tech composite construction.3

• Performance Tech: Often equipped with an Atlas Hydraulic Jack Plate and Lenco Trim Tabs to optimize shallow-water performance and hole-shot.4
• All-Composite Construction: No wood is used in the build, ensuring the boat is rot-proof and lightweight.5
• Seating: Features a leaning post with a built-in cooler (often 98-quart) and rear fold-down jump seats that tuck away to expand the aft casting deck.6

Note: Because Epic boats were often sold as "dealer-ready" packages, many used 2018 models feature premium upgrades like Twin Power-Poles, Minn Kota Ulterra trolling motors, and Humminbird Solix/Helix electronics.8
