I’ve always enjoyed the term “weekend warrior.” No matter what it’s applied to, it immediately stirs up such imaginative thoughts and over-thetop imagery. So, in the case of fishing, I see two warriors heading – nay, charging – down the lake to do battle with their foe. Their valiant steed swiftly carries them across the liquid tundra, ready to conquer any fish swimming in their way. See what I mean about over-the-top?

But it is easy to picture two pals headed down the lake to their favourite spot. Their valiant steed in this case would be the Sylvan Adventurer 1700 DC. A perfect weekend warrior boat, the Adventurer 1700 blends impressive styling and quality construction with premium products, and is loaded with features to simplify your fishing experience.

At 17 feet and one inch long and a beam over seven feet, there is a lot of volume for Sylvan to work with to mix and match storage and features. Open, netted storage sits in each of the gunwales. Coaming pads will save on thigh wear for adults and make a soft leaning post for little ones excitedly looking overboard.
