A Custom Aluminum Fishing Boat Built for Vancouver Island Waters
BC waters call for a boat that can handle changing conditions, long days and serious fishing. This custom DMAC Marine 460HC-CC was built exclusively for The Harbour Chandler. It pairs rugged welded aluminum construction with premium electronics, dependable power and fishing-focused features.
It's fully rigged for Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands and coastal British Columbia, and ready for salmon fishing, prawning, crabbing, bottom fishing and cruising from day one.
Why Choose a Welded Aluminum Fishing Boat?
Aluminum boats are a favourite with West Coast anglers. They're durable, low maintenance and proven in coastal waters.
The 460HC-CC has a professionally welded 4mm aluminum hull, sides and deck for strength and long life. At 17.3 feet long with a wide 7.15-foot beam, this center console is very stable. It's also easy to tow, launch and run anywhere on Vancouver Island.
The complete Ultra Deck package adds comfort, traction and durability. It makes long days more enjoyable, whether you're chasing salmon offshore or exploring local bays and inlets.
Powered by a Tohatsu 115HP Four-Stroke
A Tohatsu 115HP four-stroke outboard with a stainless steel propeller powers this build. It delivers excellent fuel economy, smooth performance and reliable power.
Professionally installed Tohatsu TOCS 4.3-inch LCD digital gauges show engine information at a glance, so you can monitor performance and run efficiently.
Premium Simrad Electronics and Navigation
Good electronics make a big difference to fishing success. This boat has a premium Simrad navigation and fish-finding package.
It includes a Simrad NSS4 12-inch multifunction display, an Airmar P66 transducer and an Airmar Point-1 GPS antenna. An extended NMEA 2000 network ties key systems together, including a NMEA 2000 fuel level sender, and leaves room to expand.
Find bait schools, mark productive fishing grounds and navigate Vancouver Island waters with confidence.
Built for Serious Sport Fishing
Every part of this build was chosen with anglers in mind.
Uflex hydraulic steering and a stainless steel wheel give precise handling. A professionally installed Interstate dual battery system keeps power reliable throughout the boat.
For safety and communication, it has an ICOM M330 VHF radio and a Shakespeare 5225-XT Galaxy antenna.
You also get a Rule 2000 GPH bilge pump and Rule bilge control panel, a Jabsco HotShot HD washdown system with a stainless steel outlet, and stainless steel drink holders.
Premium Audio and Comfort Features
Long days on the water are better with good sound.
The audio system includes a Fusion RA670 Bluetooth stereo, a Fusion Apollo 1200-watt amplifier and Fusion Apollo 8.8-inch marine speakers.
With the Ultra Deck package and a roomy center console layout, it's comfortable and practical for serious anglers and casual boaters alike.
