    10 Reasons You Should Own An Alumacraft Boat

    1. One-Piece Hull

    Alumacraft Boats uses a single piece of aluminum that 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.


    2. 2XB Hull

    Alumacraft Boats uses twin aluminum plates that run the entire length of the boat bottom giving the hull exceptional strength and durability. The 2XB is standard on the Trophy Series, Tournament Sport & Pro Series, the Dominator Series and select models of our Navigator Series.


    3. Center Keel

    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 nearly the length of the boat. This improves trolling control in wind and eliminates doglegging when drifting.


    4. Larger Aircraft Grade Rivets

    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.


    5. Concave Spray Rail

    Large Reverse Dispersal Wave Action Spray Railsmake for drier rides. These concave spray rails are engineered to deflect the spray downward. In addition, they provide lift and stability. Spray rails create a noticeably drier ride in rough water.


    6. Highest Quality Paint

    Alumacraft 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.


    7. Heavy-Duty Hatch Doors

    By using .125" thick aluminum rather than .090" like ourcompetitors, we can put bigger doors on our floor and deck hatches. That makes it a whole lot easier to get tackle bags, lifejackets and clothing in and out of all those storage areas.


    8. High Quality Hardware Pulls

    Alumacraft Boats 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.


    9. Marine Plywood

    It costs more to use marine-grade plywood in the construction of floors and decks. But with the affects of time, water and sun, anything but marine grade plywood, will not hold up. Some manufacturers skimp, so check before you buy.


    10. The Alumacraft Boat Ride

    Our pros call it the Alumacraft Ride. These guys have driven or ridden in virtually every boat on the market. They tell us Alumacraft Boats are drier, quieter, smoother and more responsive. The exceptional ride of Alumacraft Boats paired with the outstanding performance of a new Yamaha outboard - it doesn't get any better.
