Research 2020 - Solace - 345

~A boat for the next generation

Boating Magazine's 2019 Boat of the Year. Every curve and line of the 345 was meticulously combed over, drawn and redrawn for a level of perfection not seen on any other center console boat. This attention to detail, putting forth the most modern technologies at our fingertips, matched with ergonomic and tastefully designed spaces — delivers a product unlike anything before. Something so divergent we set the rules for this new model of family-fishing boats. A beacon of direction, a level that no other can achieve or surpass.
