The Best Pro-Line or Cape Horn Boats

Pro-Line and Cape Horn are two boat manufacturers known for producing high-quality boats for deep-sea fishing, inshore excursions and pleasure boating. The best Pro-Line or Cape Horn boat for you is going to be the model with features that fit your boating lifestyle. Size, price, fuel range and features all come into play when deciding on the best boat for you.

  1. Long Range Deep Sea Fishing Boats

    • Pro-Line and Cape Horn both excel at crafting deep sea fishing boats for serious anglers. Fishermen who want to deep into blue water to chase marlin, sailfish and other big species will want to take a look at the Pro-Line 35 Express which, at 35 feet in length, offers a full galley for cooking, covered sleeping areas and luxury amenities. The Cape Horn 36 is Cape Horn's top of the line deep water fishing boat. Unlike the Pro-Line the Cape Horn 36 is an open console layout meaning there's no galley or sleeping area, but plenty of wide-open space for fighting big fish.

    Offshore Open-Deck Fishing Boats

    • For anglers who want a lot of fishing space and convenience Pro-Line and Cape Horn both offer suitable models. The Pro-Line 35 Super Sport is an open-console fishing machine with 305 gallons of fuel capacity, rod holders, bait stations and plenty of storage for bait, food and drinks and other sundries. The Cape Horn 31XS, also and open-console model, maximizes storage space and fishing area and offers an exceptionally smooth ride to boot.

    Bay Boats

    • Not every angler slathers at the thought of going 100 miles or more offshore. There's plenty of big fish to catch in inshore bays and Pro-Line and Cape Horn boats both offer models specifically for this type of fishing. The Pro-Line 23 Bay is set up for just this type of fishing. With a draft of only 11 inches this boat can get into shallow flats and bays to stalk big trout or red drum. Cape Horn boats offer the Cape Bay model for this type of fishing featuring a draft of 13 to 15 inches, open decks for casting and lockable rod storage areas.

    Cruising Boats

    • Some days going after trophy fish plays second fiddle to a cruise along the coast or taking the kids water skiing for the afternoon. Both Pro-Line and Cape Horn happily oblige this tendency by offering models suited to leisurely days on the water. The Pro-Line 23 Dual Console, for example, offers a pass-through windshield to provide bow-forward riding and can set up to accommodate skiers as well as fishermen. The Cape Horn 24XS is a center-console boat as happy going fishing as cruising. Depending on what you prefer the 24XS can be outfitted with an extra baitwell or a drink cooler.
