We have spent over 40 years selling and
repairing boats and motors. When we decided to sell new boats, we
used this experience to help us carefully select the best boat lines
that would meet our standards.
First, we wanted a company that had
a history of quality boat building and a commitment to their customers.
A company that built boats with quality materials and a high level
of craftsmanship.
A company that built boats to deliver years of trouble free use
and offer dependability when it matters. On the water.
Most of all, a company that would pass our scrutinizing tests,
that would perform under the harshest of conditions, take a heavy
pounding from the waves and navigate with ease even through Lake
Nipissing’s big waters.
Product Lines
We have selected four boat lines that meet our standards and offer
the most in their respective market.
Three of those companies are aluminum boat builders
who are as comitted to quality as we are and who back up their comitment
with a lifetime warranty.
We chose Xpress All Welded Aluminum Performance Boats,
Southland Luxury Pontoon Boats and Mirrocraft Riveted Aluminum Fishing
Boats for ourselves and for our customers.
And we rig every new boat we sell with
Suzuki outboard motors, the most trusted four stroke engine on the
water.
Boat
& Motor Buying: Red Tag
There is a lot to consider when purchasing
a boat. Whenever we can, we help with the decision making process
by offering helpful suggestions or using our experience to weigh the
most important considerations. Often you can find helpful information
in our Mariner’s Boating Guide
to help you make the right decision.
One of the most important considerations
when making your boat purchase is value. Getting the most out of
your dollar. That’s why we have created our Red Merchandise
Tags, to help our customers easily identify this most important
criterion. When you see this Red Merchandise Tag on one of our boats
or in our classifieds, you can be sure that you are getting a true
value.
Our new boats often come with seasonal discounts
that we pass onto our customers and all of our pre-owned boats are
appraised in house by our experienced technicians. A Red Tag
will let you know you are getting a great price below the MSRP or
in the case of Pre Owned Boats, that it is below the market value
of the boat. Guaranteed.
Pre Owned
Boat Buying: Our Guarantee
Buying a boat is a major decision. A decision which can should bring
you trouble free time one the water. Or with the wrong purchase,
you might inherit many troubles on the water.
Sometimes the process of identifying a good used boat can be daunting,
uncertain and overwhelming. That’s why we created our 5
Star Certification.
This program takes the unknowns out of
making your used boat purchase. It covers the 5 most important parts
of a boat:
All of our pre-owned 5 Star Certified Boats receive
a complete marine survey. We ensure the integrity of the hull, inspect
the engine and components, test the instruments and electrical and
only those vessels that pass our thorough inspection receive our 5
Star Certification.
This inspection gives us the confidence to guarantee a 30 day service
warranty on every 5 Star Certified Pre-Owned Boat,
even after the OEM warranty has expired.
Suzuki
Marine
Any company can call itself the ultimate.
Year after year, Suzuki proves it.
They prove it with the industry’s biggest and best 4-stroke
outboard line up, from their mini 2.5 horsepower portable to their
mighty DF 300 V6 flagship.
The industry is still catching its breath from last year’s
introduction of this 4.0-liter, 300 horsepower technological marvel.
To leave the competition even further in their wake, they’ve
unleashed three important new models for 2008.
Suzuki’s bold new 250SS V6 4-stroke is a big-block hotrod
that will put an ear-to-ear grin on the face of tournament bass
anglers, flats fanatics, performance skiers or any boater with a
need for speed and power.
Suzuki’s new 200TL was engineered
to redefine the sport pontoon market, with advanced 4-stroke technology
and kick-in-the-pants performance.
And don’t forget their new 9.9 horsepower high-thrust model
with power tilt. Read on. Whatever your “dream boat”
is, Suzuki offers a powerful, quiet and efficient 4-stroke outboard
that’s sure to motivate you. For exciting performance, proven
technology and the most available choices for every boating style,
ultimately, there’s only one choice. Suzuki.
Suzuki's DF300 V6 didn't just re-write the rulebook on 4-stroke
power — we put it through the shredder.
Suzuki's 4.0-liter, 300 horsepower
V6 proved that an outboard could push even the biggest boats to exciting
new levels of performance, yet be compact, lightweight, and efficient.
With its narrow, compact design,
25- and 30-inch shaft versions and available counter rotation, Suzuki's
flagship V6 is ideal for single, twin or triple installations on a
wide range of high-performance craft.
This winner of the 2007 NMMA Innovation
Award is packed with advanced features like digital sequential electronic
fuel injection, dual overhead cams with four valves per cylinder,
variable valve timing, a long-track intake manifold, a newly designed
air intake and spherical bore throttle body, a new free-flowing exhaust
system and many more.
Suzuki's 4.0 liter big block
V6 cranking out 250 wild horses. A dual overhead cam (DOHC) powerhead
with four valves per cylinder.
Proven Suzuki performance features like multi-stage induction for
better breathing, variable valve timing for stronger low-and mid-range
torque and new lightweight, poly-coated forged aluminum pistons
with full-floating hollow wrist pins.
Digital sequential multi-point
electronic fuel injection, of course a hydrodynamic, aggressively
styled lower unit with a powerful 2.08:1 final drive ratio. What does
all this mean? If other boats had doors, you'd blow them off.

Game. Set.
Match.
In only a few years, this trio
of powerful 3.6-liter V6 outboards has changed all the rules and made
two strokes ancient history. Now Suzuki has added the NEW 2008 DF200TL,
a 20-inch shaft 200-horsepower motor specially designed to put the
"sport" in sport pontoon boats.

THESE WINNING FEATURES add up to exhilarating performance, rock-solid
reliability and range-stretching fuel efficiency.
To help keep your electronics humming and
the fun coming, Suzuki added a powerful 54-amp alternator and water
cooled voltage regulator.
Suzuki's proven 55-degree block and offset driveshaft makes these
compact motors a perfect match for all kinds of boats in single, twin
and triple installations.
All these cubes, together with
advanced features like dual overhead cams, enhanced air intake system
with multi-stage induction, variable valve timing (DF175) and sequential
multi-point electronic fuel injection ensure plenty of smooth power
on tap.
These powerful four-cylinder
4-strokes have a chip on their shoulders. Actually it's more like
a block — a big-block inline power head with a class leading
174.9 cu. in. of displacement. Suzuki's DF150 and DF175 may be compact
and lightweight, but they pack a heavy punch.

SUZUKI'S COMPACT 40 AND 50 HORSEPOWER models
are packed with big-time features like digital electronic fuel injection,
a self-adjusting oil bathed timing chain and solid-state direct ignition
that boosts performance and reduces electronic interference.
Never has so much advanced technology been engineered into mid-range
outboards.
This engineering innovation
will ensure good times every time you hit the water on your fishing
boat, RIB, pontoon or small center console.
Suzuki's V-Twin DF25 is
loaded with high-tech features, like an onboard computer that monitors
engine temperature and rpm and instantly sets ignition timing for
peak performance.
And a new ignition system that's lighter and sparks hotter, making
pull starts easy.
Suzuki's 70-degree twin cylinder aluminum block maximizes power
while reducing vibrations — without a heavy counter balance.
These light-weight design features and a sturdy handle make it easy
to carry.
THIS OUTBOARD HAS THE GUTS to push a boatload of friends, family
and gear making it perfect for duck boats, small fishing boats or
RIBs. For lighter duty jobs, bolt on one of their powerful two-cylinder
inline DF15 4-strokes.
These clean-running, fuel-efficient outboards
are engineered to start easily, idle smoothly and deliver all the
power you'll need for a day on the water. Whichever tough Suzuki 4-stroke
you choose, you'll have a boating partner you can count on for the
long haul.
These compact clean runnung outboards will go up to 40% farther on
a tank of gas than comparable 2 stroke models. Suzuki's new-for-2008
High-Thrust 9.9 horsepower 4-stroke was specially designed for slammin'
salmon and whackin' walleye.
New power tilt system makes raising and lowering Suzuki's DF9.9 High
Thrust a breeze. If the fish aren't biting, pick up and run to the
next hot spot.
When you get there, plenty of torque, a high-thrust propeller and
a 2.08:1 gear ratio deliver efficient and reliable low-speed trolling
for a range of heavy fishing boats.
They're built for the big job, with forged
aluminum connecting rods, a one-piece forged crankshaft and a low
oil pressure warning system.
A new, larger hub design even reduces cavitation in reverse, so you
can backtroll all day without missing a beat. With instant starts,
strong performance and smoke-free operation you can always count on,
Suzuki's 9.9 High Thrust outboard is one "thrust-worthy"
fishing companion.

Your boat may be small, but
your desire for adventure is as big as all outdoors. You need strong,
reliable, technology-packed portable outboards like Suzuki's DF6,
DF4 and DF2.5.
These 4-strokes deliver the goods, with features like Suzuki pointless
electronic ignition on the mini-might 2.5 horsepower and digital capacitor
discharge ignition on the 4 and 6 horsepower portables.
All three models feature integrated fuel tanks for grab-and-go portability
and ease of use on small inflatables, fishing boats or canoes. They're
perfect power for cruising the harbor, fishing or exploring the backcountry.
Suzuki's DF6 and DF4 feature F-N-R shifting and easy tiller steering.
The DF2.5 features F-N shifting and 360-degree
tiller steering for complete maneuverability. These motors are easy
to start, even on cold winter mornings. In the Suzuki 4-stroke tradition,
they sip fuel and meet CARB 3-star emissions standards — so
you fit right in with your natural surroundings.
Family owned and operated, Xpress Boats has been building quality
aluminum boats in Arkansas since 1966.
Starting out in a little schoolhouse in Friendship, Arkansas, Xpress
Boats built the first all welded all aluminum boat.
Discovering an untapped market in the boating industry, Xpress Boats
began to make a name for itself.
Design Innovation,
It was in the late eighties when Xpress Boats transformed the aluminum
boat with the creation of the Hyperlift Hull.
First of its kind, this padded hull raised the bar on the performance,
durability and style of the aluminum boat.
This was truly a defining moment for Xpress Boats. Now boaters had
the durability and strength of aluminum with the performance and
style that had only been found on a fiberglass boat.
Through the years, Xpress experienced
tremendous growth and in 2000, moved its headquarters to Hot Springs,
Arkansas.
In 2004 Xpress opened its pontoon division and today offers seventeen
models as part of its line up.
2006 introduced the family line of Xpress
boats, including the Fish & Ski and the Ski & Fish models
designed with family fun in mind.
Today, Xpress offers more choices and more value with the expanded
Hyperlift Series and the price friendly Super Value Series.
