The 2026 SeaArk Protege is a 20-foot aluminum fishing boat built for durability and reliable performance. Its all-welded 5052 marine-grade aluminum hull, constructed from .125-gauge material, resists impact from stumps and rocks while eliminating concerns like cracking or blistering. The 15-degree V hull design provides a smooth ride through chop while maintaining shallow-water capability. A wide 72-inch bottom and nearly 8-foot beam create solid stability, allowing multiple anglers to move freely without affecting balance.
Power comes from a 200 horsepower Suzuki outboard with fuel injection for smooth throttle response and efficient operation. The engine delivers strong acceleration to get on plane quickly and reaches speeds exceeding 50 mph. SeaStar hydraulic steering provides precise control and reduced steering effort. The open cockpit layout maximizes fishing space, particularly in the rear, and accommodates up to 10 passengers with substantial weight capacity.
Fishing functionality includes a large rear livewell with aeration and recirculation to keep bait and catch healthy, integrated storage compartments for gear and batteries, and pre-rigged features like trolling motor wiring and a transducer bracket for easy electronics installation. Dual side consoles with a walk-through windshield provide weather protection while maintaining access between bow and cockpit. The boat features deluxe captain's chairs, LED navigation and courtesy lights, a self-draining bow deck, and stainless steel hardware. NMMA certification confirms compliance with recognized safety standards.
The custom tandem axle trailer is sized to match the boat's proportions and weight, with dual axles for improved stability and weight distribution during towing. Disc brakes on both axles provide reliable stopping power, while corrosion-resistant materials withstand repeated water exposure. Heavy-duty winches and ratchet tie-down systems simplify launching and loading.
