Safety first
So its no surprise that year after year, Princecraft boats are considered the safest on the market. Lets take a look at some of the distinctive features that enable us to integrate high performance and uncompromising safety.
A DEEPER HULL
Princecraft boats have higher sides than most other fishing craft. When peace of mind is the issue, those few extra centimeters can be significant, especially if children are on board. After all, even adults can end up overboard as the result of a sudden distraction, wrong move, or strong wave.

e The Yukon
DL BT
The one you can depend on now comes in an electric version
What could be more practical than an electric motor, especially in places where gas motors are prohibited? But despite the many advantages of electric motors, a lot of boat owners shy away from them because they inevitably require batteries that can entangle feet and gear. Thats all changed with the introduction of the new Yukone DL BT! We specifically designed it to hold an electric outboard without cluttering up the inside of the boat. How? With a special battery compartment that frees up valuable floor space. Another exclusive innovation from Princecraft!
A practical, green motor to take you everywhere.
e
THE MOTOR OF TOMORROW
The new Yukone DL BT is equipped with a Torqeedo Cruise 2.0 electric motor, a German model featuring outstanding performance, durability, and Euro styling. The most powerful and efficient 24 V outboard motor on the market The equivalent of a 6 HP motor Up to 110 hours of operation Optional solar panel includes an energy management system and 12 V plug
The letter e identifies boats designed for use with electric propulsion, a fast-growing segment at Princecraft.
Theres another way to declare your independence with the Yukone DL BT: an optional solar panel. With it, you can head out in search of adventure and still recharge your batteries in isolated locations where electric hookups are hard to come by. For more details on the new Yukone DL BT, see page 60.
Interview
Harold Ericksen
Dont be surprised if you ever notice the mouthwatering aroma of bacon and eggs drifting across the water while youre in the middle of a lake some beautiful morning. It probably means Harold Ericksen and his boat are nearby!
For this dedicated angler there is no greater pleasure than being on the water, no matter how early in the morning. And its even better when Mireille his lifetime partner and fishing buddy of 30 years comes along. We love having breakfast on our boat. The smell of the coffee is so nice, it makes the other boaters jealous! she says. Of course their boat a Hudson DLX WS with twin console, windshield, and custom top is perfect for these dedicated anglers. We always have a great time, even on cold, wet days. When we invite friends out, we never cancel for rain! says Harold, adding At first, I wasnt sure about getting a windshield, but now I cant imagine my boat without it. Harold is a big guy with an even bigger appetite for fishing. In fact Mireille (though she loves being out on the water herself) often has a hard time keeping his feet on shore. I remember one time when Id arranged to have the kids come over for his birthday dinner and I still had a heck of time convincing him to stay home, she says. He only agreed when I promised wed go fishing the next day! Which they did. They even brought along their 2-year-old grandson Louka. The little guy had hours of fun stretched out in front of the livewell, tracking the movements of the lake trout inside with his finger. It was one of the many magical moments the family has shared on the water. I was pregnant when we bought our first Princecraft in 1977, says Mireille. Weve never owned any other brand of boat. Theyre safe, theyre comfortable, and theyre made right here in Quebec! Harold has a way with words, and he speaks with the kind of frankness and sincerity youd expect in a fellow his size. Whether hes winning a tournament, organizing one for his colleagues, or just fishing for fun, Harold Ericksen is a passionate angler whos always ready to share his tips, experience and maybe even his shore lunch with those lucky enough to cross his path.
Weve never owned any other brand of boat. Theyre safe, theyre comfortable, and theyre made right here in Quebec!
Interview
questions
Over the last 30 years, Ive had the good fortune to fish some of the most beautiful places in the world.
1. What is your favorite fishing memory!
Impressive black marlin on Costa Ricas Pacific coast, large peacock bass in the Amazon River in Brazil, mako sharks along Australias Great Barrier Reef, gigantic northern bluefin tuna in the waters of Nova Scotia I could go on and on about all these memorable experiences! But if I had to choose just one special moment, I think it would be the first time I encountered a rainbow trout. I was 12 at the time, and I had developed a bad habit: skipping school. I would spend my afternoons on the banks of Wilmot Creek near Lake Ontario. Until then, the only fish Id seen and sometimes caught were common species like white sucker, creek chub, or brown trout. Nothing really impressive. But that day, I spotted an enormous rainbow trout swimming past wow! It was a game-changer.
3. Is there a person, dead or alive, whom you would really like to go fishing with?
Wow, great question... I suppose I could come up with some famous people both past and present or some high profile sports personality to share a fishing day with. But the truth of the matter is that Ive been fortunate enough to have already fished with some pretty important people: the greatest hockey star of all time, Bobby Orr, and the legendary and most famous fisherman on the planet, Roland Martin, are just two on a long list of personalities that I have shared a boat with. But today, if I was given that choice for real there would only be one person on that list: my dear dad who passed away several years ago. Even though we had lots of great moments fishing together, I have a real empty spot in my soul for his company. He taught me the true value of a good day fishing and how important it is to take advantage of those special moments in the outdoors to establish bonds and strengthen relationships with friends and family. I would love the opportunity to share some of those special moments with him again and thank him for the patience and understanding he had in teaching me the virtues and benefits of a good day on the water. Thanks Dad.
2. Is there a place in the world where you would dream to go fishing some day?
Any place that offers me an opportunity to hook up to a fish, experience another wonderful day in the outdoors and share it all with a good friend, has the potential to be in my dreams
Angelo Viola, a world-renowned fisherman and adventure program producer for over 30 years, is a host of the popular show Fishn Canada. He has also been a member of the Princecraft pro-staff community for many years.
Filet the days best catch. Crush some BBQ chips to make a crumb mix. (If the fishing wasnt so good, this is a great stress reliever.) Dip the walleye filets in beaten egg, then roll them in the crumbs. Heat the olive oil in a large pan and cook the filets, about 3 minutes per side. Bon apptit !

Im a Princecraft man 24/7. These boats are the best, and Im proud to say it, he boasts. In 2007, he achieved his dream of buying his own Princecraft. True love and true logic!
Karine Gagn, Pierres other half, shares this adventure. They chose their Starfish DLX SC together, down to the smallest detail, to celebrate Pierres 40th birthday. He had his mind set on a Princecraft, but Karine wanted to look at all the options. At first, I thought a Princecraft would be more expensive. But if you compare apples with apples, it really is the best choice: safe, reliable, comfortable, fun to drive, and well equipped for fishing. Plus, Princecraft makes the best looking boats! Weight was another major consideration. When they bought the boat, the Lvis residents had a compact car with only a 2.2 liter engine. Weve been to a lot of places in Quebec and weve never had a problem hauling our boat or pulling it out of the water, says Pierre. Plus, it costs less in gas, on the water and off.

Pro-Bass Canada general director and tournament official Garry Welch waits for sunrise to sound the start signal.
Every year, Princecraft is involved in a number of tournaments across the country, including those organized by Pro-Bass Canada. In 2010, this hard-working organization based in Montrgie launched a new series called Pro 115 Max, opened exclusively to boats with motors that are 115 hp and under.
We wanted to make sport fishing more accessible by offering an alternative to anglers with less competition experience or with smaller boats than the ones used in our Elite series, said Garry Welch, General Director of Pro-Bass Canada. It worked! The first year was even more successful than wed hoped, exclaimed Princecraft representative Claude Leroux, who attended the two-day classic on Lake Memphrmagog last September. The Grand Prize was a Holiday DLX SC with fish/depth finder, trolling motor, cover, and trailer a $23,500 value!
The Grand Prize winners, Jean-Charles Goulet and Marc Pariseau, walked off with the first-place prize valued at $23,500.
15
Friday, 6 p.m.
Participants gather at the Centre nautique de Magog to meet, talk, and share a few laughs over a cup of coffee. Pro-Bass Canada head organizer Liette Laroche reads the rules and announces the start order. The atmosphere is intense, and everyone is looking forward to the following morning.
Saturday, noon
The sun is now high in the sky. The air is crisp, and the colors are dazzling. Its one of those fantastic days where you feel truly lucky to be on the water. Best of all, the fish are biting! A few teams even have five fish in their livewells. Their goal now is to increase the total weight of their catch for the day. But careful no more than five fish in the boat at a time! The official has his eyes peeled.
Saturday, 6 a.m.
The stars are still out when the first boat heads down the boat launch and onto the water. The sun may rise a bit later in September, but the competitors are wide awake and eager to get their lines in the water.

Jean-Charles Goulet: half of the 2-member team that won the $23,500 Grand Prize.
Saturday, 6 p.m.
Everybody meets for dinner at a local restaurant. Participants share tricks and compare techniques and favorite lures. We dont go to bed too late, because the alarm clock will be ringing pretty early!
Theres no going back now! Its time to go to the scale and compile the results for both days. As the scores are added up, the leaders take a seat in the Grand Prize boat the gleaming Holiday DLX SC standing beside the stage until a new team bumps them out. The suspense continues until the very end. With a total weight of 32.82 pounds for both days, Marc Pariseau and Jean-Charles Goulet end up the winners. This series gives everybody an opportunity to participate in tournaments. Go for it and bring your kids fishing. Its a great experience! exclaims Jean-Charles, visibly tired but proud of his victory.
Sunday, 11 a.m.
Battling three-foot waves, the anglers must work hard to find good catches. But despite what the spectators on the shore think, true fishing buffs love this kind of challenge! And those who have a Princecraft boat are pleased with their choice. Take Nicholas Naccarata, for example: My Hudson is very stable. In todays more difficult conditions, its one of the best boats you can have. (He and his teammate Matthew Kovacic will finish second, which will earn them an invitation to the Elite Series Classic the following week.)
Sunday, 4 p.m.
Nobody is left out, as there are prizes for every position. With big smiles, Guillaume Bgin and Frdric Labont pick up their $250 surprise prize, awarded to the team whose catch is the lowest in weight! The two friends were delighted with their first competition experience. Ive been following the Pro-Bass Canada Elite series for some time, but I didnt want to buy a big boat. When the 115 series was launched, I thought it was perfect for us! says Frdric. To which his teammate added, It was harder than we thought, but during the tournament, the other teams gave us tips and helped us. Plus, we got to travel!

Checklist
1.
WHAT IS THE BOAT YOURE LOOKING AT MADE OF? Ideally you should opt for aluminum H36, the strongest and most durable alloy available on the market. In addition to maximizing the lifetime of your boat, youll avoid getting into trouble in the middle of an outing!
5.
2. 3.
HOW IS THE HULL ASSEMBLED? Independent tests have shown that riveted hulls are the most reliable. For improved durability, be sure that the rivets are doubled up where the bottom meets the sides and the transom. EXAMINE THE FINISH. To protect the value of your investment, the hull and side panels must be perfectly straight and smooth and the wiring should not be visible.
IN TERMS OF SAFETY, PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE DESIGN. Ensure the boat has a deep V-shaped hull and sides that are high (so you can stay dry!). To keep young passengers safe, look for booster seats with a lower position. Folding seats should always be equipped with no-pinch hinges. These precautions will help prevent unfortunate accidents!
6. 7.
CONSIDER THE BOATS FUEL CONSUMPTION. A good thing to look for is a wide bottom, which ensures a fast start and more speed while requiring less power. WHICH OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE TO MAKE YOUR FISHING BOAT MORE VERSATILE? Remember that your needs and those of your family may change over time. A swim platform, ski tow bar, or sleeper seats are just some of the options that can transform your boat and keep you satisfied for many years.
4.
IF YOURE INTERESTED IN A LONGER MODEL (17.5 FT. OR MORE), LOOK FOR A DOUBLE-REVERSE CHINE HULL . This innovative design increases lift, reduces resistance, and prevents transversal instability. It will help ensure youre not disappointed with your boats performance and make your outings more pleasant and safe for all occupants.
8.
FINALLY, READ THE WARRANTY CAREFULLY. To protect your investment, make sure it covers EVERYTHING, from hull to canvas!
