For Dominik Grégoire, president of Desjardins Sport in St-Jérôme, one of the most beautiful boats for fishing enthusiasts is without doubt the Princecraft Xpedition 200 WS.
In fact, he equips two members of his promotional team with this 6.1 m, 664 kg upside-down hull which can accommodate five passengers and a powerful 250 HP Mercury Pro XS engine on its transom.
The instrument panel features all the essential information on tachometer, voltmeter, speedometer, trim and fuel level. Made from 5052-H36 marine aluminum alloy, the bottom is lined from bow to midship, as well as at the chine.
Elevated fishing platforms in the front and at the back facilitate a variety of techniques and approaches. Passenger-side fishing rod holders, tie-downs and nine-foot storage with tubes secure your poles.
A bow plate for an electric motor with plug and socket lets you add a front-mounted model.
Several spaces and nets are ideal for storing anything that needs to be kept out of harm’s way. ProFlo Plus bow and stern livewells will keep your fish alive after they’ve been caught.
“We’re proud to present a boat of this quality and performance made right here in Quebec,” says Mr. Grégoire.
