Research 2018 - Hewescraft - 240 Pacific Explorer

~SOMETIMES, THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED REQUIRES A BOAT.

The name says it all. When weekends aren't enough to discover the treasures of your coastline, the Pacific Explorer is ready for more. It's exploding with amenities and options like a standard v-berth sleeping space, an enclosed toilet closet, a sink, a stove, and a convertible dinette/sleeper. Plus, the hull is Hewescraft's biggest and meanest, and the fishing features are top-of-the-line. So whether you're dropping crab pots, trolling for salmon, or anchored for the night in a sleepy, secluded cove, your trips will be remembered for many years to come.

A true excursion vehicle and a home away from home, our Pacific Explorer delivers strength and quality at every corner. The hull is a full quarter inch thick and eight feet wide, so you can ride out those waves with serious safety and stability. Plus, it's still trailerable when you want to get it out of the water. Within the cabin, the dinette and galley options are made with real mahogany—standard. The sleeping cabin in the v-berth has a hatch for you to step out onto the bow, and the roof is strong enough to hold your crab pots or kayaks. And let's not forget about fishing. The Explorer is our only model with a self-bailing cockpit floor and two huge, diaphragm-pumped, in-floor fish boxes. So what are you waiting for? It's time to explore.
