When a better aluminum deck boat is built, Princecraft will build it!

           

 

Ventura 190 LW

They combine the space of a pontoon boat with the speed and agility of a sport boat. They are one of the most popular styles of boat on the water today, and Princecraft is leading the way. That's because our lightweight aluminum design makes the deck boat concept even more attractive. Compared to fiberglass - which is up to 50% heavier than aluminum - our lighter weight, vee-hull aluminum deck boats deliver superior performance with lower horsepower - and operating cost - than a comparable fiberglass design. The result is a deck boat that's less expensive to own, operate and maintain, with all the performance you demand and a smooth dry ride.

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 agilit
 

 

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
