G3 Boats’ HP Series of Bass Boats Gets Power Rating Boost

Each Model Sees Increase In Horsepower Ratings

The HP Series of bass boats introduced just last

year were sleek looking and fast running, popular attributes in today’s

bass boat marketplace. But for 2002, these same boats will perform at a

higher standard, thanks to upgraded and increased horsepower ratings on

each model.

The HP170, a 17-foot l bass boat has a new rating of 115

horsepower, an increase over last year’s rating of 90 horsepower. The

18-foot long HP 180 was rated for 130 horsepower last year. That rating has

jumped to 150 horsepower. The largest of these high performance bass boats

is the HP 190, measuring 19 feet from bow to stern. Its 150 horsepower

rating was increased to 175 horsepower. Like all G3 boats, the HP series

are powered by dependable Yamaha outboards.

Also new for 2002 is the choice of the standard single console or

the new optional dual console. Both deluxe cockpit command centers feature

Yamaha controls, easy to read gauges, tinted windshield and tilt steering

with non-feed back steering components. The passenger console on the dual

model includes tinted windshield, ample leg room and a convenient lockable

glove box.

HP bass boats feature all welded .100 gauge aluminum hull

construction for ultimate durability of hull life. With 90-inch beam

widths, there’s ample room throughout each model for spacious casting decks

and wide floors. In enhance the fishing experience, each HP is equipped

with Model 752 MotorGuide foot control trolling motors, divided and aerated

19-gallon livewells with livewell control systems, built-in 27 gallon gas

tanks (21 gallons on the HP170) for long runs and factory installed Zercom

CID-40 in-dash flashers.

Storage compartments are abundant and spacious on HP bass boats

with rod management systems in dual rod lockers (one rod locker on HP170)

and two storage compartments on the front deck and underseat storage.

Additional storage can be found on the back deck compartments on the HP180

and HP190.

All HP models are delivered with the G3 Custom powder coated

trailer with transom saver. The polyurethane two component paint finish

resists fading, cracking or chipping. Bow and stern lights, heavy-duty

bilge pump, stainless steel prop on the HP180 and HP190, three battery

trays and four cleats are included for boating convenience.

Like all G3 boats, HP bass boats are powered by Yamaha outboard

engines. Buyers of a G3 boat, motor and trailer package also receive the G3

advantage package that includes free resident fishing licenses for the

buyer for three years.
