Renaissance Marine Prowler Cat First Glance

• Updated: October 6, 2005

Since its inception, the goal of Renaissance Marine, Inc., has always been to give you the best catamaran possible. The company believes that being a small semi custom builder was the only way to achieve this goal. Renaissance never wanted to be the biggest, just the best, and to be the best you have to start with the best hull. After seven months of refinement and sea trials, it was finally satisfied. Renaissance produced a hull that has unique Euro-styling, is the most fuel-efficient, the fastest and the driest, and has more storage than any other fishing cat you can buy. Its hull was so unique that the company received a patent in May 2000. Its Turbulent Stabilizing Venturi System design makes the hull extremely dry, virtually eliminating typical catamaran sneeze.

Over the years, the name Renaissance Marine has become synonymous with excellence. Featuring 100-percent wood-free construction and using only the best materials, Prowlers are truly a step ahead of the competition. Renaissance recently switched to epoxy resin for its strength and light weight, and virtually no environmental impact that is associated with polyester resins. Its hand-laid, full-length, multidirectional fiberglass, combined with vacuum-bagged core, allows the manufacturer to build a strong yet light catamaran for increased speed and fuel economy. The builder uses only 316 stainless-steel hardware, including all thru-hulls. Our wiring is second to none, using all color- coated copper tinned wire and epoxy-coated heat shrinks, as well as waterproof quick disconnects for rapid pump replacements. Fit and finish is excellent.

Prowlers are the only catamarans that use a three-piece construction method: a separate hull, cap and liner. This provides more cockpit space and helps create a truss system by bonding the deck to the tunnel and bulkheads. This truss system prevents the sponsons from flexing – a concern with catamarans. And every bit of space can be used for below deck storage as well as giving you foot room under the gunwales. Rear fish boxes are insulated and can store a 128-quart cooler. Front boxes can be used for dry storage or will accommodate four rods each. A front transverse bulkhead is bonded to the cap for added strength.

This isn’t just marketing hype. In 2002 Renaissance beat the previous Bermuda Challenge record, a 780-mile open-ocean endurance race, by nearly seven hours, making it there in just over 22 hours. Since this grueling race, the boat has never needed repair and is still in use in Bermuda with over 1,500 hours. The boatbuilder recently introduced custom colors, and a 306 pilothouse fish-around is in the works.

About this boat

Renaissance Prowler 246

Personally customized and built in 2005 by Renaissance Marine; this Prowler 246 “Global Adventures” is the open Ultimate Power Cat for Sport Fishing, Diving, or just a leisure cruise. The split catamaran hull allows a wider beam for a spacious day on the water. This allows the engines to be located outside of the step ladder, for ease of access for divers, or large fish. 

The Catamaran Hull design provides ample storage space for diving equipment, or fishing gear. The center console has an extra storage locker and provides great room to walk around. It is customized with a hinged Bimini top allowing her to go under most fixed bridges.

2023 Boat Buyers Guide: Catamarans

• By Karl Anderson
• December 27, 2022

The popularity of the multihull (aka catamaran or cat) fishing boats has never been greater, as more and more boatbuilders enter this growing segment of the market. The inherent stability of the catamaran design rolls less with the seas, making fishing offshore less tiresome and more comfortable. Available from 20 to 48 feet, catamarans typically offer a large fishing platform with generous storage and fishing amenities. They are available in a wide variety of deck layouts, including center-consoles, dual-consoles, and even pilothouse and express variants.

Big Picture

The large deck area of a catamaran enables many large underdeck storage lockers and insulated fish boxes in the sponsons. This gives anglers ample room for gear and the day’s catch. The catamaran’s stability, fishability, and smooth ride in rough seas make it attractive to anglers as well as day-cruisers. A center-console version adds 360 degrees of angler access to the rail. With the dual-console design, generous seating behind a beam-to-beam windshield makes for a great family fishing-friendly setup.

Live bait is one of the most popular types of fishing in virtually every coastal zone. To do it successfully requires optimal water capacity and proper flow. The minimum size of the outflow water plumbing should be twice the size of the inflow. The plumbing should have a drain at the bottom to shed scales at the end of the day, as well as a drain at the top of the well to adjust capacity and allow overflow. Above-deck transom-mounted wells should fully flood to the lids when running to keep baits from getting beat up. 

Tip: A sump box with multiple pumps in case a pump fails is the best setup for first-rate livewells. Conveniently located inflow and outflow valves make it easy to optimize the flow without tiring your bait from swimming too much in the well. 

Rod Storage

Having enough rod holders is essential to be successful for opportunity fishing. Look for vertical rod storage along the console and across the back of the T-top. Many models also have rod holders along the outboard transom wall. Having plenty of gunwale rod holders for drift- and kite-fishing is helpful. 

Tip: Placing adjustable swivel rod holders by Gemlux makes deep-dropping, lure-fishing and drifting even easier because they allow your rods to face the direction the baits are fishing, yet they can be swiveled back to keep rods from sticking out of the boat while running and docking. 

Manufacturers often offer multiple choices for horsepower, but whatever the choice, the engines must come in pairs. For example, you might order twin outboards (one for each sponson) or four outboards (two for each sponson), but single- or triple-outboard configurations are not common on a cat. Optimal selection should be made based on user load, weight of the boat, ride comfort , performance desires, and best case for resale. It’s a rare day when you can run wide open, but having more horsepower gives better torque at slower speeds and thus better control. Running larger engines slower gives better fuel efficiency too.

Tip: When possible, choose the highest horsepower offered because it typically leads to a better resale value with a shorter sales cycle. 

Power steering from engine manufacturer Optimus or SeaStar is essential with the higher horsepower required for larger boats, and it makes installing and operating the upper station in a tower far more practical and comfortable.

With the power demands of electronics, livewell pumps, stereo amps and more, it is wise to have at least two house batteries, and for larger boats, a third or fourth with a multibank charger for dockside. Each engine should have its own dedicated battery as well. 

Electronics

Typically choosing the largest screen or multiple screens that will fit on the console is best-case scenario for ease of use, ergonomics, and visibility. VHF radios, stereo controller, and equipment switches for lighting, pumps, and accessories should all be integrated with greatest visibility and ease of operator reach. 

A Tale of Two Hulls 

A catamaran rides on pair of hulls, or sponsons, each thinner and sharper than  that of a similarly sized monohull boat. The narrow sponsons of the cat tend to slice easily through water to deliver a smooth ride, even in rough seas. At the same time, with the sponsons positioned out to the sides of the boat, cats tend to roll less, thus providing great stability to enhance crew comfort, security and safety. However, cats tend to corner more flatly than a monohull, and some hulls (but not all) tend to lean outward versus inward during a turn.

Experts Say

Newer designs such as Invincible’s Morelli and Melvin-designed semi-asymmetrical sponsons eliminate some of the negatives of the cat design, such as “sneezing,” where water sprays out the front of the boat when hitting a wave. They’ve also controlled the uncomfortable “outboard lean” ­sensation common in older designs when in a turn. Once transitioned to a ­catamaran, many become true believers and preach the benefits of the design.

Editor Says: Saltwater fishing cats not only offer superb stability and smooth ride, but some also display exceptional speed and range. I recall one trip out of Key West, Florida, aboard an Invincible 40 Cat with four 350 hp outboards to the Dry Tortugas. It was a 60-mile run, and we made it there in 70 minutes. We caught more fish than our arms could bear, and then dashed back to Key West, arriving in time for cocktail hour on the same day. -Jim Hendricks, Staff Editor, Boating and Fishing Group

Best Catamaran Fishing Boat Brands

20th oct 2023 by lenny rudow.

Choosing the best catamaran fishing boats is no easy task, because in this day and age, you have plenty to choose from. This wasn’t always the case, but in recent years more and more power catamaran fishing boats have been hitting the market. The reasons are simple: Whether you’re looking at an offshore fishing catamaran, inshore catamaran fishing boats, or small catamaran fishing boats, foot-for-foot they tend to run smoother and more efficiently than their monohull brethren. While all the types of fishing boats are different and each has its own advantages and drawbacks, as a general rule, if you want to get to the fish fast in rough seas, nothing is better than a powercat for the job.

It’s tough to try to sort through various builders and nail down the best fishing boat brands , and the increase in the number of catamaran fishing boat manufacturers means choosing the top picks in this genre is as tough as any other. So, which brands are best? Here are our top picks in some of the most important categories and why we think they make the grade.

Catamaran Center Console Boat Brands

This will be a very short section, because virtually all of the catamaran sport fishing boats being built today are center consoles. Yes, some manufacturers offer pilothouse models or cuddy cabins, but those that don’t offer a lineup consisting mostly of center consoles are few and far between. So, keep on reading—the manufacturers we call out as tops for the more specific categories below all fall into the category of best catamaran center console boat brands, as well.

Offshore Fishing Catamaran Brands

Offshore boats need to meet some prerequisites: they have to be large and competent enough to run dozens of miles from shore, have the fuel capacity for cruising hours on end, and of course they need all the fishing accouterments to handle big game pelagics like tunas and billfish. 

In many ways, Freeman is partially responsible for the current wave of cat popularity, because their 34- to 47-foot fleet was quickly adopted by a number of offshore fishing guides after they splashed their first model in 2007. Their boats are known for hat-stripping performance, often cruising comfortably at 50 mph or more, even in a head sea, with top-end speeds sometimes exceeding 70 mph. Tremendous fuel capacity and utterly massive fishboxes are some other traits the Freemans are famous for.

Invincible Boats offers a lineup including both monohulls and power catamarans , with center console cats ranging from 33 to 46 feet plus a 46-foot pilothouse model. These boats post spectacular speeds with cruising in the 50 mph range and often they can break 70 mph at top-end, thanks to semi-asymmetrical hulls with near-vertical inside walls. Invincible is also known for its advanced and customizable livewell systems. On the 46, for example, the boat can be rigged with up to four livewells up to 70 gallons each, fed by a sea chest system with as many as six pumps. 

When judged by the number of hulls built, World Cat is one of the biggest powercat manufacturers in existence, and the company has a lineup that starts small but includes five models from 26 to 40 feet that are up to the task of offshore fishing. They have all the basic fishing features, plenty of range, and comparatively good performance, but what they’re known for when matched up against the competition is a healthy dose of family-friendly features. Unlike some angling-dedicated offshore fishing catamaran models, the World Cats feature lots of comfy seating, roomy head console compartments, freshwater showers, stereo systems, and similar touches that can take the edge off a long day of fishing.

Inshore Fishing Catamaran Boat Brands

Inshore anglers can be just as demanding as the offshore crowd, and when the weather is right many of them will head into the open ocean as well. So, the main defining factor separating offshore fishing catamaran boats from inshore catamaran fishing boats is simply size. And often, the line between the two gets blurred. As a result, you’ll see some newcomers here, but some of the best catamaran fishing boat brands we’ve already talked about could easily pull a repeat performance.

Caymas is a newcomer to the catamaran world, having built only monohulls up to the 2023 model year. Their new 34, however, is an impressive boat which has offshore abilities and will also make an excellent inshore fishing machine. It rides on a set of twin-stepped hulls with 18/22-degree deadrise surfaces at the transom and 50/55-degree entries at the bow, features a Hooker sea chest livewell system with 70 gallons standard and an additional 50 gallons optional, and plenty of high-end perks like lighted stowage compartments, a JL Marine audio system, and USB ports at the helm.

Tideline is a small, semi-custom builder in North Carolina, and their boats can be difficult to find on the market, but we need to mention them here because they build a 24-footer that’s well known as one of the finest inshore hybrid fishing cats around. With twin 200-hp outboards, it boasts 50-plus-mph performance, has an utterly massive forward casting deck for slinging lures to gamefish like reds and specks, and hull draft is a mere 14 inches so it can sneak into the shallows where few anglers tread.

Twin Vee does make some large models intended for offshore use but their 24- to 28-foot center console models are perfect for inshore angling. Better yet for many family fishermen who want a multipurpose platform, they also offer a pair of dual console 24-foot models. Twin Vees have a “compression tunnel” that packs air between the two hulls and compresses it as the boat moves forward, creating a cushion of sorts that makes for an unusually soft ride in choppy seas.

World Cat is back as we discuss the inshore scene, thanks to models like their 235CC and 260 and 280CC-X. The 235CC is designed like a bay boat, with large fore and aft casting decks, while the 260CC-X features a very unusual drop-down transom design, with the livewell and fishbox shifted into widened aft gunwales. Like other World Cats, these boats have plenty of comfort features to go along with the angling perks.

Small Catamaran Fishing Boat Brands

“Small” is a relative term, and while 20- to 24-footers may seem like small catamaran fishing boats to some folks, they seem mighty big to others. However, the distinction is more or less moot because in the current marketplace, no major production builders drop down below 22 feet, seven inches of LOA (the World Cat 235CC). If you want a cat under this size, you can look for a custom builder or search the used boat market. Twin Vee made plenty of 19- to 22-foot boats in years past, Tideline made a 19, and when they were in operation, catamaran boat brands like Leader and Nautico made a number of powercats between 14 and 21 feet.

Choosing the Best Catamaran Brand For You

Are there some powercat brands out there that build a great boat, but we haven’t mentioned? Absolutely. Arrow Cat builds a pair of interesting cabin boats that aren’t 100-percent fishing machines, but do have semi-fishy cockpits that would work just fine for plenty of people. C Dory makes a 25-footer that falls into the same category. And Aquila , which traditionally built large cruising boats, has recently introduced a 28-foot center console billed as a fishing boat. Any of these, or others, could be the “best” brand for you, depending on your personal needs and tastes. But the power catamaran fishing boat manufacturers we’ve called out here are all arguably at the top of the heap—nd if you take one for a sea trial, we’re betting you’ll agree.

Designed with a singular vision...To deliver unmatched performance and efficiency!

Introducing the insetta 35ifc  – the bar has been raised.

The Insetta 35IFC was designed with a singular vision… to be the best-performing center console sport fishing catamaran in its class.  Enjoy unmatched performance, range, and efficiency thanks to the 35IFC’s hydrofoil-assisted design.

In addition to being the best High-Performance Fishing Catamaran in its class, it also provides a smoother and dryer ride in the rough stuff!

This boat was designed for people who fish, by people who fish!  From its integrated livewells to its cavernous coffin boxes, level open deck layout, massive insulated storage and so much more, this boat was designed for maximum range and fishability!

Here’s what our customers have to say: “Holy crap do I love my 35 IFC with the Merc 300 V8’s on the back. We ran her down to Key Largo the other day, snorkeled all day, got lunch at Shipwrecks Bar and Grill, and ran back. Cruised between 40 and 45 mph, mostly around 42. So smooth it’s nuts. Burned maaaayyybe 40 gallons for the whole day. As we cruised the dashboard was telling us between 1.7 and 1.8 mpg, but I’m pretty sure we cruised more than 40 miles and burned between 35 and 40 gallons, no more. So… suffice it to say that you guys have absolutely crushed it and changed the game here. Fantastic work”! – Alan, Hull #4

Frequently Asked Questions

IFC is Insetta Boatwork's Internal Foiling System.

You can expect a significant increase in cruise speed; Improved handling and stability in rough conditions; Better acceleration; A boat that is less affected by increased payload; A 20-40% increase in fuel efficiency; and a 20-40% further cruise range! Additionally, the IFC technology will also provide a drier ride in choppy conditions and Provide for more responsiveness when turning at speed!

The system is a fixed setup, there is nothing to operate and there are zero moving parts.

The IFC Technology in effect smooths out rough seas by allowing the boat to run from wave crest to wave crest at a relatively smooth and stable attitude. The IFC System creates lift which help to in effect “Carry” the hull higher in the water. The system acts as a set of wings carrying the boat at speed, keeping the hull from having to follow each wave across its entire contour. In other words the surface of the waves have less effect on the hull as the IFC system is lifting the boat. Additionally, the aerodynamic lift created by the catamaran hulls creates even more lift at the bow of the boat, keeping the nose high and preventing the “slamming” or sneezing found in other catamaran hulls.

No, you don’t. The foils are flush mounted to the bottom of the keels of each sponson (as well as up in the tunnel.) At its centerline the main foil of the IFC system is only slightly lower than the keel line. The boat will easily load onto a standard catamaran trailer. There is no big contraption hanging way down under the boat.

Remember, the foils are INTERNAL to the tunnel. At its lowest point the main foil is only slightly lower than the hull and is higher than the props. Because of this the odds of striking the foils are extremely low. The boat is designed to be lifted by the foil. The structural integrity of the foil system is such that the weight of the boat could be supported many times over by the foil. As such, if you did somehow manage to strike the foil on something EXTREMELY SUBSTANTIAL, like a stone shoal, the likely outcome is that you may (in a very worst case scenario) bend or break a foil wing. If that were to happen, you could still operate the boat to port with the remaining foils. The IFC foils are made from a very high-grade stainless steel and designed to meet or exceed relevant guidelines for impact and strength.

As water travels through the tunnel and around the foil, a tremendous vortex is created. This force keeps most debris from being trapped in the tunnel or around the foil. Between the pressure of the air moving through the tunnel, and the vortex created in the water, the tunnel and foils will stay clean and clear.

The outboards of the 35 IFC are mounted on a slight outward angle to place the propellers properly to maximize the thrust and flow efficiency created as the water travels through the tunnel and around the foils. This mounting also helps the boat to lean into a corner, much like a monohull.

Firstly, we’d ask, “Why would you want to?” But the short answer is no. IFC is an integrated system that is integral to the design of the boat.

The short answer is that boats with technology similar to IFC have been in use for many years, but not in the recreational market. Commercial and Military applications are quite prevalent. The initial design of a hull and system like this is quite complex and can be cost prohibitive. We at Insetta feel the gains in efficiency, speed, range and ride quality far outweigh the initial design and build cost.

Upon deciding to build a foiling Cat, Insetta assembled a team of naval Architects and Marine Engineers to refine an existing and proven design. Using their own state of the art construction techniques, Insetta brought an application specific version to the fiberglass Center Console market.

Why did Insetta Boatworks decide to build a boat with IFC?

For decades, Hydrofoil power boats have proven to be the most efficient craft for a variety of offshore operations.

While pursuing a B.S. in physics in 1960, Victor Insetta was employed doing anti-submarine research that utilized high speed Deep-V patrol boats equipped with hydrofoils. Their ability to pursue submarines at high speed, operate safely offshore, and, being foil borne: allowed their hull to run clear of the water avoiding direct hits from torpedoes. Decades later, Vic and his family rode comfortably on hydrofoil ferries in Italy, flying over white capped waves in the bay of Naples.

In 2017, The Insetta 45 was chosen to be the official chase boat of the America’s cup! Four 45’ Insetta’s catamarans were shipped to Bermuda to assist at various cup events. Sailboats, competing from several countries, were catamarans with hydrofoils ! The Insetta 45’s ran parallel to these “foiling sail cats” to assist with TV coverage. The sailing cats were traveling at speeds approaching 50 mph, 2 ½ times the wind speed . Efficient … you bet . They could also turn on a dime at over 40 mph…

It became obvious: that a foiling cat would make a great offshore outboard power boat… Many foil power boat designs in the past, had wide foils that stuck out the sides, increasing their beam and draft. It made them difficult to dock, and they couldn’t operate in shallow waters. Joel Shine (chief operating officer) of Insetta Boatworks found a catamaran design that had hydrofoils mounted in the tunnel, (that location between the tunnel walls actually improves their efficiency), and does not add to its draft. Further improvements could be added by using our ultra-light high strength infused composite construction.

Joel, Vic and our technical staff reviewed the foiling cat’s initial specifications and performance data, and then sea trialed two foiling cats with internal hydrofoils. Our staff includes a second physicist and pilot… Glen Dobbs. We are all active boaters and we determined we would build our version of a foiling outboard powered cat. We contacted a Naval architect, who designed several successful foiling power cats . He is now a member of our technical staff.

Our 35 “foiling cat” design has set the standard for Foil-Assisted Sportfishing boats. The hull, foils, materials, and engines are synergistically combined, to provide: unrivaled high-speed cruising efficiency , and provide safe offshore handling, with unimpeded shallow water operation, including beaching, without foils or props contacting the bottom.

Available from 20 to 48 feet, catamarans typically offer a large fishing platform with generous storage and fishing amenities. They are available in a wide variety of deck layouts, including center-consoles, dual-consoles, and even pilothouse and express variants.

Experience unprecedented offshore fishing performance, in its most powerful yet compact form: the newest Invincible 33' catamaran . Learn more.

Custom Offshore Catamarans . Since 1997. Experience Best-in-Class Performance. There’s a good reason Renaissance Prowler owners are some of the most satisfied and loyal in the industry. In fact, there are several. For starters, we hand-craft boats to meet individual customers’ needs.

These boats are all about offshore angling from stem to stern, with gobs of livewell capacity, multiple insulated fishboxes, huge tackle stations, and rodholders galore. Speeds on both models push close to 60 mph, and when we sea trialed a 34 we felt the smoothness of the ride was second to none.

Offshore Fishing Catamaran Brands . Offshore boats need to meet some prerequisites: they have to be large and competent enough to run dozens of miles from shore, have the fuel capacity for cruising hours on end, and of course they need all the fishing accouterments to handle big game pelagics like tunas and billfish.

The Insetta 35IFC was designed with a singular vision… to be the best-performing center console sport fishing catamaran in its class. Enjoy unmatched performance, range, and efficiency thanks to the 35IFC’s hydrofoil-assisted design.

Prowler 42: Game-changing asymmetrical sponsons for superior performance

Race-inspired, Fisherman-desired

Her asymmetrical sponsons, inspired by offshore race boat design, were a first among fishing catamarans. So were her fully flush decks , unbroken by a step up forward of the console. And so were her distinctive reverse sheer line and tapering bow, which make her not just good looking for a cat , but good looking by any standard . The term "game changer" gets thrown around a lot these days, but the Prowler 42 might just qualify.

Our asymmetrical sponson design delivers   the benefits of a long, narrow deep-vee — precise handling and predictable manners at speed and monohull good looks — combined with the benefits of a cat — unparalleled ride quality, exceptional drifting/trolling stability, improved fuel efficiency, and cavernous belowdecks storage.

As much as she might look like an offshore racer from the rub rail down, though, rest assured that she's an uncompromising fish and dive platform everywhere else.

In addition to her industry-first flat decks, which allow for a comfortable, secure fish fighting position in the bow, she offers more than 850 gallons worth of insulated, locking, lighted belowdecks compartments for fish, gear, and dry storage, plus another 400 gallons in twin coffin boxes. An expansive dash accommodates up to three 16" displays, and twin 55-gallon aquarium-style livewells in the aft corners put bait right where you need it.

Helm seating can be configured with either one or two rows to accommodate up to six in deluxe bolster seats with folding armrests . Aft-facing seating and tackle center options are also available. Seating forward of the console can also be custom configured with a variety of loungers and upright seats. Air-conditioned sleeping accommodations can also be spec'd.

Thank you for your interest in Renaissance Prowler! Please allow up to a week or two for a response. We do our best to answer inquiries in a timely fashion, but this is an extraordinarily busy time at our shop.

“ It doesn’t have any bad manners. It just runs right over/through whatever is there. No sneezing, no digging, no walking, no bow steer — nothing. ”

Specifications

Length overall: 41'10" beam: 12'0" hull draft: 18“, dry weight: ~ 8,400 lbs. power: 1,200 - 1,800 hp fuel: 600 gal., key features.

Asymmetrical Sponsons

An industry first for fishing catamarans, the Prowler 42’s asymmetrical sponson design resembles that found on offshore racing catamarans yet incorporates far more deadrise — 26˚ vs. the 9˚ - 13˚ found on most go-fast cats. The one-of-a-kind Prowler hull makes use of carefully designed lifting strakes, steps, and other running surface features to help offset the negative effects of the deeper vee while taking advantage of its strengths. Meanwhile, a knife-sharp 55˚ entry eats gulf chop. The result is a fast, efficient, soft-riding cat with exceptional manners — no leaning out in turns, no bow-steer in following seas, no wallowing in the trough. The high tunnel is well clear of the surface at speed, eliminating “sneeze” and dramatically increasing efficiency. Striking lines are a welcome side effect.

Bow-to-Stern Flush Decks

The Prowler 42 and 36 were the first catamarans in their class designed with flat decks from bow to stern. While the raised casting/sunning platform in the bow of most cats certainly has its uses, there’s no question that the flush deck design is superior for dedicated offshore fishing platforms, allowing anglers to work fish 360 degrees around the boat with generous toe-room and a thigh-height bolster the entire way.

Endless Layout Options

The 42 can be built with a wide variety of seating and layout options. At the helm, choose between a single row of flip-up bolster seats with armrests, or a double-row “school bus” arrangement with room for six. Forward of the console, twin contoured loungers conceal side-by-side 200-gallon coffin boxes or create additional room inside the console for air-conditioning. Numerous other options are available, including sleeping accommodations.

Power of Choice

As an independent, custom builder, Renaissance Prowler recommends Mercury Marine power packages but can rig and install your choice of power. Rated for up to quad 450s, which push her to more than 80 mph, the Prowler 42 also performs admirably with quad 300s, 350s, or 400s. Still, in an emergency, she’ll plane off on as little as a single 350.

Fanatical Attention to Detail

The fact that the Prowler 42 is a hardcore offshore fishing machine doesn’t mean we cut any corners on the details. All compartments are fully insulated, finished, and illuminated. All hatches are fully finished on both sides for appearance and ease of cleaning and secured with heavy-duty, locking compression latches. Deep channels and top-of-the-line D-profile gaskets keep compartments truly dry and significantly improve ice retention, while console doors are molded and finished in-house — not third-party plastic parts.

“ The boat has performed excellent and is awesome on the drift — no rocking, just moves up and down. It is crazy how stable it is, makes gutting and packing fish a lot easier. Loaded with 1,860 lbs. of fuel, 3,860 lbs. of ice, 920 lbs. of water, and 615 lbs. of people/gear she hits 70 and cruises nice at 48. ”
