Skimming the clear waters of Lake Coeur d'Alene aboard a Princecraft Vectra 21 is a study in slow-motion summer: three roomy couches, a large sundeck and an 8-foot bimini for shade give you space to spread out, while a heavy-duty tube pull bar and a 115 HP Mercury outboard turn the pontoon into a versatile dayboat for families and groups.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE BOAT

Room for Ten and a Large Sundeck

The Princecraft Vectra 21 fits up to 10 passengers across three large couches with a table and offers an expansive sundeck—built for shared lounging, socializing and shade under the bimini.

THE PERFORMANCE

Three Pontoons and a 115 HP Outboard

With three pontoons and a 115 HP Mercury outboard, the Vectra planes more easily at lower speeds, giving a stable, confident ride for cruising Lake Coeur d'Alene.

THE ACTIVITIES

Shade, Comfort and a Tow Bar for Fun on the Water

An 8-foot bimini provides shade for hot afternoons, while a heavy-duty tube pull bar at the stern readies the boat for towing watersports or playful afternoons off the swim platform.

What the day feels like

What the Trip Feels Like

This is boating pared down to its essentials: a stable, comfortable pontoon that becomes a floating living room. Days are spent cruising quiet coves, drifting from the sundeck and organizing short tow runs from the rear pull bar—then returning to the shade of the bimini to regroup and relax.
