We are excited to represent these excellent heavy gauge welded aluminum fishing boats to the Great Lakes and Midwest. Weldcraft builds many different models from 18' - 34'. We feel these boats are perfectly suited for our waters given their ability to handle heavy seas, durability, and optional partial and full hardtops.

280 Cuddy King - SHOW THE OCEAN WHO’S KING.

Want to capture the heart of the most cunning fish? You can, with the Cuddy King’s unexpected amenities, flawless ride, and more room to fish and relax. We’ve skillfully netted them together in signature Weldcraft style. With a steep bow entry, upswept bow, self-bailing aft deck and true reverse chine on a wide 8’ bottom, the Cuddy King series is a sportfisher’s dream. Superior function is enhanced with thoughtful form, in 40” sides constructed of .160-gauge 5086 aluminum alloy for rugged strength and seaworthiness. The Cuddy King is loaded with performance-maximizing features such as a forward-leaning windshield, driver and passenger mariner suspension seats, cabin subfloor storage, and an aft deck subfloor fish box. Countless galley and stand-up head configurations are available, too. And even though it sports a full 8.5’’ beam, the ocean- capable Cuddy is trailer-ready and available in four different lengths ranging from 26’ to 30’. How’s that for royal treatment?
