2026 Hewescraft Pro V 200 PV
‘V’ IS FOR VERSATILITYWhen ample work, play, and fishing space is essential to your days on the water, the Hewescraft ProV is the perfect platform. The ProV features a forward-justified console design that provides more than 85 square feet of cockpit space. The ProV’s available extended transom provides even more space by keeping your outboard engine completely outside the full gunwale-height enclosed transom, so your trimmed-up engine will never crowd you again. When you want to spread out, relax, and fish rather than trip over your gear and your crew, the roomy Hewescraft ProV is essential. You know what you’re up against. Whether its a windy day on the lake, a rough morning on the river, or a calm afternoon on the coast, the ProV is the boat to beat. It rewrites the rules for versatility (and blows the competition out of the water) by taking design cues from our most popular fresh and saltwater models. We start with our popular Sportsman silhouette, then we widen the hull, deepen the V, and shore up the stern with an optional full-width, extended transom made popular on our big-water Sea Runner and Ocean Pro models. We took our best-selling Sportsman model and gave it more: more fishing space than other boats in its class, more stability to ensure your crew’s safety, more fuel capacity to keep you going, and more hull strength for days when Mother Nature gets mean. Plus, it features a long-awaited extended transom option to keep the gunnels high, and the engine out of the fishing cockpit area and out of your way. But that’s not all. Our fully-welded extended transom is longer and twice as wide as our competitors’, so you get more lateral stability, a longer-running surface, and better planing. At this point, we don’t have competitors—we have a whole new class of boat. |

Buyer’s Guide to Boats and Pontoons
When you think about it, buying a boat is a little bit like getting married. After all, this is the commitment of a lifetime, and you want to feel confident you’re making the right decision! Fortunately, there are plenty of fish in the sea, and plenty of boats and pontoons to choose from here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service. The following tips can help you narrow down the options and find your perfect match!
Choosing a Boat
What kinds of activities are you interested in? This should be your guiding question when choosing a boat. If catching fish is on the agenda, you should seek out a fishing boat, with features such as rod holders and livewells. If you want to pursue the excitement of watersports, you should look for a boat with a powerful engine that can reach high speeds. Meanwhile, if you are looking to host parties on the water, a spacious luxury boat will serve you best.
That being said, there’s no need to limit yourself. There are some boats that can cover all your bases! Pontoon boats, for example, are incredibly versatile. We are passionate about pontoon boats here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service, and we recommend them to our customers who want to get a little bit of everything out of their boating experience.
Budgeting for a Boat
Of course, you can’t talk about buying a boat without discussing all the costs involved! The upfront cost of purchasing a boat can be pretty steep, but the long-term costs are even more important to consider. When budgeting for a boat, remember to account for all the expenses that are going to add up over time – such as fuel, maintenance, and insurance.
Generally speaking, it’s a good idea to set aside at least 10% of your boat’s total value each year for routine maintenance, and another 5% for any unexpected repairs. Meanwhile, you can expect to pay about 1.5% of the total value of your boat annually for insurance coverage.
If you have any questions about the boat buying process, you are always welcome to consult the sales team here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service! We are always happy to assist. You can find us in Chatham, ON, near London.
