Hulls Designed for 0ptimum Performance
EVERY CRESTLINER BOAT requires more than best materials and construction to
satisfy your boating needs. Long before a Crestliner boat leaves the drawing board,
experienced Crestliner engineers select the critical hull shape to assure peak performance. Through product research and development, these Crestliner experts
match the importance of each hull design to related boating requirements-boating
use, power preference, load capacity. As a result, each Crestliner you select will be
the best possible in its class.

Crestliner's exclusive Stabilized Vee Hull slices through smoothly
especially at high speeds. This distinctive Crestliner hull also tops the efficiency of ordinary deep V
designs at moderate or slower speeds. The Crestliner Vee is the queen bee of stability, too. lnterior
load distribution presents no challenge-performance remains high whatevet the seating, watel
conditions and power preference. For big water, big power and big performance this is the hull
you'll want.

The brilliant, new product of Crestliner engineering and design this yeat is the Stabilized Vee
Wing. The exclusive Crestliner hull design provides substantially mote squarc feet of capacity and a
larger weight load per square foot than any other hull of equal length. That's because it has famous
Crestliner Stabilized Vee with perfectly designed sponsons forward allowing f or extra f ishing room.
The wing design also allows for gentle slicing through rough water, immediately dispelling the
smooth water f low away from the boat. Here's where Crestliner's know-how and use-design skills
this year bring big dividends for fishermen and families alike. The new Muskie demonsttates
built-in values of the Stabilized Vee Wing while providing the stability and high-performance benef its similar to Crestliner's Stabilized Vee.

A popular design for family boats, the modified soft chine hull provides added comfort and
safety. Still it provides high values for both f ishing and watet skiing. A favorite of women because
of its conttolled holding action, this hull holds firmly even on exaggetated turns because of the
deep chine support on both sides.
OUICK.PIANING, HABO CHIIVE HUTT
This hull is designed with minimum cutvaturc underside except for a stern Mini-V. As a result,
the hard chine hullachieves maximum lift surface to move quickly to a straight out position for fast
planing action. The result makes the design popular for water skiing or heavy load carrying capacity.

The fishing boat favorite in aluminum-constructed hulls is the Round Chine design. Wide and
relatively f lat, this hull provides quick planing action. You get mote speed at low-to-medium.horsepower than most hull shapes provide. Also, you benef it in fuel economy and enjoy more space in
a/l boat lengths. Fishermen also appreciate the soft-banking turns and the dry, smooth ride. Both
the lapsttake sides and chines def lect the watet spray downward.
Efficient with low horsepower, this triple-keeled design offers positive stability with maximum
maneuverability. Highly regarded for these safety features, the design is popular for utility-fishing
boats and is incotporated in two models this year.

O Crestliner uses the time-tested, Flat Sheet Forming
Method in creating its aluminum boats, allowing for
the selection of strongest alloys. (Inlike other produttion methods, there is no reduction in sheet tiick-
ness during
forming that could otherwise
cause weak spots in the finished hull.
O The "Crest-weld" process provides a continuous
weld at all seams along the entire length of the boat
for a void-free, distortion-free bond.
O Additional strength, superior performance and stability are builtin through the use of longitudinal risers
to support the hull evenly at full or intermediate speeds.
O More strength is o.fered by a multipurpose cockpit

O Strong metal deck beams are welded in place in

O Crestliner uses special marine aluminum alloys with
preferred characteristics in heavy gauges. Bottom
thickness is .100" and topsides are .080". Other brands
skimp on either alloy, thickness or both.
O Gasoline-resistant foam fotation is fixed in place
between hull and foor. This important safety feature
also provides sound absorbency for a quiet ride.
