Princecraft

Company Profile

For over 45 years, Princecraft has beent The choice of Discriminating Boaters. As pioneers, they have led the field in every area of aluminum boat design. Which is exactly why Princecraft pioneered the use of Computer Aided Design (CAD). They start with precise computer-aided hull and component part designs, allowing them to strictly control the quality of their end product before the first sheet of aluminum is cut. By integrating CAD with Computer Assisted Manufacturing (CAM) equipment, this digital precision is directly translated to the final product. The result is a product built to extremely high tolerances, ensuring a truer hull shape and a perfect fit of all component parts. This means a finished product that is put together to stay that way, and built by some of the finest aluminum boat craftsmen in the business. Princecraft has long been an innovator in aluminum hull design, with a long list of innovations and firsts to their credit. They invented the square chine, and were the first aluminum boat company to use a chine extrusion on their hulls. They pioneered the use of a three-step assembly incorporating a combination of welding and riveting with special aircraft-type adhesives for maximum strength and good looks. This gives the boat a more rivet-free, smooth, finished-looking hull side. And they tank test every hull to ensure their state-of-the-art design holds up in the real world. And when it comes to performance on the water, their hulls hold the highest horsepower ratings and perform like nothing else in their class. They believe new ideas can come from anywhere, at any time. It is this approach to fostering innovation that has brought about some of the best aluminum boat designs ever implemented - and enjoyed.
