Lowe Favorite 198
The Stinger 198 Favorite Edition is the fully-equipped, jaw-dropping, head-turning, fish-hammering package you’ve been waiting for. This is the all-welded aluminum boat that will put the “fiberglass is better” myth to bed for good. And with red and black Favorite Prostaff graphics, tinted windshield, and red LED lighting she’s a real looker too.
Accelerate and get on plane faster with the Mercury 150L Four Stroke outboard. Combining fuel efficiency with a 29-gallon fuel tank will let you stay out there longer doing what you love.
The Stinger’s huge, nearly 83 sq foot, fish-fighting deck, is covered with durable, shock-absorbing SeaDek flooring. Under that is plenty of storage including a locking center rod locker with 10 tubes for rods up to 8’6”.
Of course, the Favorite package comes absolutely loaded with premium fishing gear. TWO Humminbird fishfinder /chart plotters with built-in Bluetooth®, one with GPS mapping. A Minn Kota Ultrex 80-MDI-IP Trolling Motor also with Bluetooth®, a Minn Kota 8’ Red Talon Shallow Water Anchor to hold you on the fish when you find them, and a massive 30-gallon livewell to keep them in when you land ‘em.
As if all that wasn’t enough, the Stinger 198 Favorite comes with $2,500 worth of additional Favorite gear! Rods, reels, shirts, hats, even can coozies...
If you can’t catch fish with this tournament package, you probably can’t catch fish.
