PrinceCraft Boats

Has anyone ever heard of this kind of boat? I was at the State Fair today and saw some there. I didn't look real close but from a distance, they looked like a decent boat. What does anyone know about these. Thanks for the info.

I glanced at them too, I will check them out closer this weekend when I go back to the fair. In addition to the wide variety of fishing boats they make they also make a Aluminum hull deck boat and have a line of pontoons as well.

Their fising boats kind of reminded me of Mirro Crafts.
They make some very nice boats and the trailers are made to match. For some reason you don't see many on the water around here.
Most of the Aluminum fishing boats you see around here are LUND, Crestliner, or Alumacraft.

Lots of them in Canada. The people I know that have them seem ok with them.

Princecrafs are made in Canada and very popular up north. They are very solid boats and are very simialr to Lund or Alumacraft in styling. They fish very well. They tend to be a bit pricy right now because the U.S. dollar is down a bit against the Canada dollar. Nestor Falls Marine is one of the world's largest Princecraft dealers and has a nice HSOforum.

They make a sweet deck boat. One of the few I've seen that are aluminum and not glass.
I've checked into the outboard model. I currently own a pontoon and a runabout, and would someday like to replace both with a deck boat. Princecraft has a HSOforum, just do a search. I think there is a dealer in the Forest Lake / Wyoming area.

I took a careful look at these boats and came to the conculsion they deserve serious consideration. They are in the Lund and Crestliner caliber category.

They have nice thick hulls.

They are owned by Brunswick, which also owns Lund, so I guess you could say they are corporate cousins.
