Hewescraft 270 Pacific Explorer ET Hardtop

This gently used Hewescraft 270 Pacific Explorer is a rugged, offshore-capable aluminum boat built for serious use in Pacific Northwest conditions.

This is a no-nonsense vessel that prioritizes strength, usability, and low operating cost—making it an excellent choice for anglers and coastal cruisers looking for a dependable, high-value platform.
