This exceptional vessel marks a historic moment in Canadian maritime history as the first aluminum boat equipped with Quad Yamaha 450 horsepower outboards. Boasting a length of 42 feet and a generous 13-foot beam, this custom-built vessel is a testament to craftsmanship and precision. 

Powered by quad Yamaha 450HP outboards, this cruiser is not just a sight to behold but a powerhouse on the water. The inclusion of these high-performance outboards underscores EagleCraft’s dedication to providing the latest and most powerful marine technology.

Navigation is seamless with Garmin electronics – including forward looking transducer and six 8616 units. The inclusion of a Seakeeper ensures stability in varying sea conditions, while the FLIR camera adds an extra layer of safety and awareness. 

EagleCraft’s commitment to both luxury and functionality is evident in every detail. From the three in-deck insulated fish boxes to the diesel furnace heat and saltwater ice maker, this vessel is designed for those who appreciate the finer things in life. 

This ground-breaking vessel not only pushes the boundaries of innovation but also showcases EagleCraft’s commitment to delivering top-tier, customized boats for the discerning customer.
