Pro-line Boats
Submitted by Bruzoandnicko on Sun, 2013-04-14 18:41
Can anyone tell me what the proline boats are like in ruff conditions? Heard some bad rumors about them, but don't know if they are true. Anyone have one and can tell me first hand?

I got a 26 and can't
I got a 26 and can't complain we are doing 80mile trips once a week in all weather. I dunno if I'd go any smaller with the proline I don't like the look of the 23. But up here its a different sea up here it short sharp windchop it's hull banging stuff when it blows up. I'd love to see someone punch though a 25knot wind up here at 25 knots and not get a flogging. I'd sell my boat tomorrow if I seen it. I've been on stripers,Boston whalers,sea foxs,haines hunters, stabi crafts just to name a few if I had a choice it would be a Boston whaler

Currently own a 21 pro line center cab 2008.....no complaints......and i have been in some very very very hairy waters and was happy with the end result...but unforuntately i may be looking to sell it at the end of the year due to work commitments and a international moove on the horozion ....watch out NZ....three kings/ranfurly banks and your double digit trout wont know what has arrvied next year!
we have came home home from the islands across the gulf in some rank rank rank chop....was rapped.
Ive done alot of work on mine (not desing work) in work i mean rocket launches out riggers etc etc...
some users on here have been on it and they seem to love the tub......

i would pop onto
i would pop onto www.thehulltruth.com and look up Mike carrigan ( i think that is his name) or search for proline boats. he was a rep for them and still helps people out with warranty and other issues with them.
