Deck Boats Building Process

	Princecraft deck boats allow you to enjoy the best of both worlds The performance of a speed boat The comfort and spaciousness of a pontoon Everyone can enjoy the fun

	Over 50 years of engineering goes into our deck boats The same innovative engineering and assembly as our fish boats The same legendary Princecraft quality is evidenced in every detail The same quest for unparalleled performance

	Aluminum boats perform better than fiberglass Fiberglass is 50% heavier than aluminum, so you get better performance from a smaller engine Aluminum boats offer a number of advantages: Plane faster and stay on plane at slower speeds Provide better fuel efficiency and easier trailering Offer unsurpassed handling and performance Require less maintenance than fiberglass Can be beached on a rocky shore without chipping or cracking the hull Are more durable, which is why they manufacture airplanes and semi-trucks from aluminum

	Princecraft State-of-the-art CAD Design and Engineering Our designers create and test models in the computer Develop hulls and features for performance and styling CAD and solid works 3D software ensures every specification is precise Exclusive three-step construction process combining: Riveting Welding and Aircraft-grade adhesive For unmatched combination of strength, durability and performance

	Testing and Re-testing Our history of innovation demonstrates our unyielding quest for better boats Every hull is tank tested - from the largest to the smallest Ensures water tightness Prototypes are tested for performance and durability Final adjustments are made to hulls and components

	Built from the best aluminum We insist on H36 throughout our boats because we won't compromise on durability H36 is 25% harder than other aluminum alloys used by some competitors Provides uniform strength and a truer hull shape Provides a better ride, more durability and lasting value

	Every Component Fits Better High-tech CNC cutting equipment so cuts are extremely precise Every component fits precisely, performs better and lasts longer The biggest difference in assembly from model to model are the serial numbers

	Structural Durability The best combination of structural components for each boat size and usage We maximize the structural strength of hulls with aluminum transverse and longitudinal framings H36 center keel from stern to mid ship H36 aluminum brace-plate from mid-ship to bow

	Wider, Deeper V-hull Our deck boats have a greater load capacity A wider, deeper-V provides more stability while idling or underway Our advanced hull design cuts through water better with less pounding Our hulls can handle larger, faster engines Reverse-chine hull designs for performance-enhancing lift, efficiency and agility

	Ergonomic interiors We build every deck for optimum comfort and performance Spacious floor plans and plenty of seating Helm stations with everything within easy reach Ample underseat and floor storage Clean sight lines

	Ultra-comfortable seats Our plush seating is built for all-day comfort Thickly upholstered chairs, benches and lounges are among the most comfortable available High seat-backs for greater support Many models provide a full-width sun lounge or chaise lounge Some models feature our plush folding pedestal seats

	Unmatched fit and finish No other aluminum boat manufacturer can match our craftsmanship Fit and finish comparable to fine automobiles As comfortable as your living room, with a better view Integrated, smooth-looking side panels No exposed wiring or gaps in components You can see the quality in every detail Coordinated colors and graphics Boats that last as long as a Princecraft demand a timeless look

	Custom-Engineered for Mercury Power Provides optimum performance and reliability Choose between Mercury's OptiMax 2-Stroke Direct Fuel Injected engines or FourStroke outboard engines Princecraft boats are available with Mercury Verado FourStroke outboard power Princecraft has achieved Mercury's Installation Quality Certification on all MerCruiser powered boats All of Mercury's OptiMax and FourStroke engines are covered with a 3 year limited warranty

	Options crafted to Princecraft standards Many options are manufactured specifically for each model and use Trailers are custom-built to fit each model Fasteners for canvas enclosures are factory installed on every boat for a precise fit From captain's chairs with "bolster" to ski tow post, all the custom options you want are available

	Better resale value You can easily recognize the quality and durability built into every Princecraft boat So can any other prospective buyer should you ever decide to sell your boat Unlike many other brands, Princecraft offers excellent resale value for years to come

	Hassle-free boating experience Quality through and through enhances every day on the water We offer the best Protection Plan in the industry It's your assurance our boats are built every bit as good as we say they are Our Protection Plan covers everything from hulls to canvas enclosures
