Explorer 568
Cruise Craft boats are known for their predictable ride and this one is no exception. If you’re after something to please the whole family, including fishing, cruising and watersports, then the Explorer 568 is going to tick all the boxes.
You are sure to be just as impressed when you take to the helm for the first time. This is a boat with no compromise in performance, features or comfort. It’s a design with sweet flowing lines…just how a Cruise Craft should look.
From stem to stern, the Explorer 568 offers the utmost in quality. The cuddy cab provides ample storage and shelter, while the cockpit is spacious and beamy to handle a boatload of anglers.
Then hit the throttle! The smooth ride has to be experienced to be properly appreciated. In true Explorer fashion, the 568 tracks like a laser and handles with all the composure of a family classic. When you reach your favourite fishing mark, the stability at anchor is simply remarkable.
