When Babe Winkelman elected Polar Kraft as his official boat sponsor for the Professional Outdoorsman, it was a perfect fit. While we were honored to be associated with the best known outdoorsman in America, Babe saw it as an opportunity to partner with a brand he had long admired. In his words, “When I first laid eyes on a Polar Kraft in the showroom, I thought ‘I have to get one of those on the water!’ The fishing layout was exactly the way I’d have it if I designed the boat myself.”
Like Babe, our boat-builders share a passion for the outdoors, and the time they spend on the water drives our pursuit of building the perfect aluminum boat. Step on board a Polar Kraft, and you can’t help but see it. The high quality materials. The superb fit and finish. Boats obviously built by craftsmen. Power one up and you’ll experience how effortlessly a hull refined over 58 years of boatbuilding handles heavy chop. How solid it feels when cornering. How steady it is from your favorite fishing seat. At Polar Kraft we build boats for the demanding fishing and hunting enthusiasts like Babe Winkelman who appreciate performance, rugged construction and durability. And we think it’s why they’ve made Polar Kraft their aluminum boat of choice since 1951.
