Take the Hewescraft Sportsman hull and sharpen the deadrise from 10° to 14° to better handle rough conditions. Then, shorten the bow and lengthen the cockpit by moving the windshield and console forward to maximize fishing/working space. Finally, add an optional extended transom with full-surround gunwale, and you have the Hewescraft ProV. The versatile ProV gives you more of everything on an in-shore, big lake and river fishing platform. When you need an easy-to-handle, swiss-army-knife of a boat, there’s value—and then there’s Hewescraft ProV value.

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.
