About Crownline

At Crownline,

we realize that buying a boat is a huge investment. Whether you are new to the boat ownership experience or a seasoned boater, you will want to make the most informed decision possible. Crownline Boats, Inc. is one of the largest single brands in the marine industry - worldwide. If you sort the market data based upon the 21′ to 32′ boat segment, we are the third largest single manufacturer in the industry. If you sort the market data based upon the 18′ to 32′ boat segment, we are in the top five. Either way you look at it, we are one of the top marine manufacturers in the industry today. Following are a few key points we know you look for when considering a boat brand.

Design:

Innovative boat designs that focus on sophistication and exclusivity are the basis of the Research and Development division at Crownline Boats, Inc. Our sleek sports car styling and lustrous gelcoat will definitely attract attention. The style lines below the rub rail are designed specifically to cast shadows and reflect light. The windshield frames flow into the deck. Crownline offers a progressive alternative to the uninspired styling of our competitors, generating much excitement throughout the industry.

Standard Features:

Crownline builds boats that are loaded with outstanding customer-driven standard features. By listening to our customers, experienced boaters who embrace the boating lifestyle, we have determined which value-added standard features are most important to include in order to make on-board times the best times ever. Crownline provides the longest list of standard features of any builder in the industry - bar none! And, we are continually reevaluating this list each year to keep up with the complex and ever changing needs of our customers. It’s just one more example of why Crownline continues to be one of the top builders of owner-pleasing stern drive sport boats and a leader in boat owner satisfaction.

Ride:

At Crownline, we encapsulate our stringer systems in fiberglass. Once glassed into place, the cavities are foam filled. Our construction process builds added strength and the foam filled stringer design is a great safety feature with noise absorbent qualities. Our strategic approach to deep-V hulls and fast planing times equals a smooth and responsive ride. The combination gives you a ride without a “hollow sound” and it provides that new and responsive boat “feel” throughout the ownership experience. Additionally, safety. Our F.A.S.T. Tab™ hull is designed to insure planing efficiency and stability in high-speed turns. Deep freeboards provide added safety and comfort for little ones. Our audio/visual high water alarms (found in all of our cuddies, cruisers and large bowriders with sleeping accommodations) provide added safety and security. Full beam swim platforms add boarding and exiting security. Standard features such as pull up cleats, plenty of grab handles, four step boarding ladders with handles - all help to keep your family safe during your boating adventures.

Optional Equipment:

Crownline offers an extensive model line-up for every lifestyle, with clever innovations to help make boating experiences the best possible. In addition to the seemingly limitless number of standard features we provide, Crownline still allows you to express your unique style and satisfy the special needs of your family by offering you a large variety of engine applications (which carry a FIVE-YEAR POWERTRAIN WARRANTY!) and other options such as a large selection of gelcoat colors, graphics, seating arrangements, etc. A Crownline boat customized to meet your needs is your assurance of a thoroughly enjoyable ownership experience. That’s our reason for being in business.

Quality:

We use the highest quality products available in our lamination process - Armorcote Gelcoat, for a high gloss finish, premium marine resin during construction for strength and endurance and a Vinyl Ester Barrier coat to all but eliminate blistering concerns. Our highly skilled technicians install hand-laid wovens, bi-directional fiberglass and composite coring materials (Nida-core) to provide uncompromised structural quality. These are all expensive, labor-intensive processes and steps, but they separate a good boat from a great one. Every boat that leaves our facility reflects our commitment to excellence and quality. Crownline boats are a great value, delivering quality that stands the test of time. That’s why we are one of the top manufactures in the boat building industry!

Warranty:

Because we have so much confidence in the quality of our boats and the components we use, Crownline offers one of the most comprehensive warranties in the industry. While most manufacturers offer two years of coverage, Crownline boats come standard with a five year guarantee on stainless steel, five years on seam separation on our upholstery and canvas, a lifetime warranty on our gauges and a five year warranty on our engines and powertrains. Complete details outlining our “Best In Class” warranty coverage can be found in this catalog and on our website at www.crownline.com.

Safety:

Safety has always been and will always be a priority at Crownline. All Crownline boats are certified by the NMMA. Their certification requirements are based on the ABYC’s “Standards and Recommended Practices for Small Craft.” To be certified, a manufacturer must pass inspections that encompass a range of safety standards. In additional, we are also inspected annually by the Coast Guard and continue to receive exceptionally high marks from them for our boat building processes. Our boats feature an abundance of standard features that support increased safety. Our F.A.S.T. Tab™ hull is designed to insure planing efficiency and stability in high-speed turns. Deep freeboards provide added safety and comfort for little ones. Our audio / visual high water alarms (found in all of our cuddies, cruisers and large bowriders with sleeping accommodations) provide added safety and security. Full beam swim platforms for boarding and exiting security. Features such as pull up cleats, plenty of grab handles, four step boarding ladders with handles – and many, many more.
