Overview

Meet the boat that needs no introduction. Renowned in the fishing world for its uncompromising excellence, the Hudson® has what it takes to face all conditions head on.

H36 Aluminum

We believe construction materials must adhere to high standards of resilience, performance, and durability to deliver real enjoyment and nautical perfection.

With 70 years of experience, navigation, and innovation under our belt, we are the only manufacturer that crafts every inch of its hulls from H36 aluminum.

Given we use H36 aluminum, it's not surprising to see our boats on the water 25 years after they were initially manufactured. Their exceptional durability and resilience mean you can approach any shore and navigate over rocky bottoms without any fear of scratches and dents.

H36 aluminum, the hallmark of Princecraft®.

The Benefits of Having Your Own Boat

Boats

Buying a boat is a big investment, and you should feel confident in your decision. Even if you feel ready for the financial commitment of boat ownership, you might still be wondering: is it really worth it? The answer is up to you, but of course, we here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service are big proponents of the marine lifestyle! If you need a little convincing, you came to the right place. Read on to discover the many benefits of having your own boat!

Making Memories

Boating is a great way to create unforgettable memories with family and friends. Everything is more exciting when you are out on the water! Even a casual day of cruising around the lake or lounging on the deck of your boat can be a wonderful bonding experience. You can also teach your children to fish, seek out remote destinations for swimming and snorkeling, or even stretch out under the stars and look for constellations and meteors. When you have your own boat, each summer day is an opportunity for marine adventure!

Reducing Stress

There is plenty of evidence to suggest that spending time in nature is one of the best ways to relieve stress. With a boat of your own, you can get away from the hustle and bustle whenever you feel like it, and enjoy some peace and quiet out on the water. Your boat is the perfect place to escape from everyday life and give yourself some much-needed time to recharge and reflect. There is comfort in solitude, and nothing feels more solitary than being alone on your boat!

Meeting New People

Owning a boat gives you access to a whole new world of experiences, and that includes meeting new people! As you spend time at marinas and boat ramps, you will have the opportunity to meet other boaters. You can also seek out boat clubs in your area, and get involved in the local boating and fishing community. This is a great way to make new friends who share your enthusiasm for boating!

Are you ready to start shopping for your own boat? Head over to Howell’s Marine Sales & Service today! Whether you prefer a new or used boat, we can help you find the perfect match for your needs and budget. We proudly serve Chatham, ON, and our neighbours from London.
