2024 Crestliner 1700 Storm

The 2024 Crestliner 1700 Storm is a 17-foot aluminum bay boat built on a fully welded hull with extra-strength extruded ribs and a full-length aluminum stringer system. Designed for panfish and shallow-water fishing, it combines durable construction with practical fishing-focused features in a compact, easy-to-manage platform.

The layout centers on two Tempress pedestal seats and two flip-up bench seats arranged for comfortable positioning while fishing. A starboard console houses a Humminbird PiranhaMAX 4 fish finder, 12V power outlet, drink holder, horn, and no-feedback steering. The boat includes a 17-gallon aerated livewell in the bow and lockable rod storage rated for eight rods. Marine-grade carpet over aluminum flooring covers the cabin, while multiple storage compartments serve tackle, batteries, and fuel.

Fishing amenities include a 12V trolling motor outlet with 8-gauge wiring in the bow, three drink holders, and integrated bait and tackle storage throughout. Stainless steel eyes secure the bow and stern, and four black composite cleats provide attachment points. The boat features wood-free construction, a manual bilge pump, and level flotation for safety.

It comes with a painted black single-axle trailer rated for 1800 pounds. Motor options include a MotorGuide X3 45/45" or MinnKota Edge 45/45" trolling motor, and the boat accommodates a Lowrance Hook2 4x fish finder as an alternative primary sounder.
