1. One
piece hull. |
|
 |
6. Highest
quality paint. |
|
Our hull is made from a
single piece of aluminum which is cut and shaped to form
the hull. This one piece design assures there are no seams
on the boat's bottom—providing the greatest possible
inherent strength and no heaving. |
Our boats are painted in
the same base coat/clear coat process and colors used by
the big three auto makers. The beauty of this process is
it allows for repairing small scratches and areas of dock
rash without repainting your entire boat. Matching touch
up paint can be found at more than 4000 outlets. |

2. 2XB
Hull. |
 |
7. Thicker
hatch doors |
|
Twin aluminum plates run
the entire length of the boat bottom giving the hull
exceptional strength. The 2XB is standard on the Trophy
Series, Tournament Pro Series, and select models of Magnum
and Navigator Series. |
mean bigger hatch doors. By
using .125 thick aluminum rather than .090 like our
competitors, we can put bigger doors on our floor and deck
hatches. That makes it a whole lot easier to get tackle
boxes, life jackets and clothing in and out of all the
storage areas. |

3. Center
Keel. |
 |
8. High
Quality hardware pulls. |
|
One-piece extruded hardened
keel adds strength and integrity from the top of the bow
to stern. Preformed to match the profile curve of the bow
assuring no stress on rivets. The one-piece keel,
reinforced with 1/4" solid aluminum at wear points, runs
the entire length of the boat. This greatly improves boat
control on windy days and reduces weathervaning—allowing
you to stay on fish longer. |
Alumacraft uses the highest
quality hardware on the market. Chromed metal hardware is
strong, durable and easy to grab and open, even with
gloves on. Compare some of the hardware on other boats and
you'll be surprised. |

4. Larger
aircraft grade rivets. |
 |
9. Marine
Plywood. |
|
Inherent strength is
greater with larger rivets. Larger rivets mean stronger
rivets. Stronger rivets mean fewer rivets needed. Fewer
rivets mean fewer holes and significantly lower chance of
popping rivets. |
It costs more to use
marine-grade plywood in the construction of floors and
decks. It's not something you would notice unless you
looked or asked. But with the affects of time, water and
sun, anything but marine grade plywood will not hold up. |

5. Concave
Spray Rail. |
10. The
Alumacraft Ride. |
|
Large Reverse Dispersal
Wave Action Spray Rails make for drier rides. These
concave spray rails are engineered to deflect the spray
downward. In addition, they provide lift and stability.
This feature provides a noticeably drier ride in rough
water. |
Our pros named it the
Alumacraft Ride. These guys have driven or ridden in
virtually every boat on the market. They tell us the
Alumacraft Ride is drier, quieter, smoother and more
responsive. The exceptional ride of an Alumacraft with the
outstanding performance of a powerful Evinrude outboard—
it doesn’t get any better than this. |
