Research 2012 - Lowe Boats - Sportsman 16

~Finally, a Serious Hunting and Fishing Hybrid!

~Lowe's new Sportsman 16 is proof that a boat can be both a serious hunting AND serious fishing boat. The Sportsman has spacious casting decks, an open hunting-style side console layout and a superior V-hull design. It also has a cavernous dual-duty gun/rod locker, a massive removable rear-storage box, a tournament-class rear livewell and a standard forward fuel cell. This is serious hunting and serious fishing in one seriously innovative package!

~Standard package includes your choice of Mercury® outboard (up to the boat's maximum rated hp)* and a custom-fit Lowe bunk trailer with swing tongue.

~Important features include: olive drab baked-on acrylic paint, an aluminum side console w/ recessed switch panel and optional windscreen, bass boat style driver and passenger seats, all-welded construction, a 8 degree VorTrac™ performance hull, solid extruded center keel with six formed-in keels, all-aluminum TufDeck™ floors and decks with oversize floor rivets, pin-type pedestal seat bases bow & stern, a massive storage box in bow casting deck, heavy-duty stainless steel hardware, accessory receiver gunnel, 4 cleats, powerful bilge pump, navigation lights, plus an extra-large, 22 gal. livewell, and an extra-long rod/gun locker.

~Important options include: Gator-Skin™ sprayed-in liner, a 46# MotorGuide® trolling motor, Lowrance® X50DS fish locator and pedestal fishing seats. Optional colors include hand-applied camo paint: Mossy Oak® Shadow Grass, Mossy Oak Break Up, Reelfoot® River Bottoms or Reelfoot Grass Lands patterns.
