As the flagship heavy-duty utility model in the lineup, the 16′ Wide Transom Sportspal is built for major camp hauls, waterfowl hunting, family outings, and big-water fishing runs. Boasting a massive 1,050 lb carrying capacity and seating for up to four paddlers, its broad 30-inch transom provides maximum stern buoyancy to support heavier gear loads, standing casts, and outboards or electric trolling motors up to 3 HP. Outfitted from the factory with marine-varnished webbed hardwood seats, a wide 38-inch beam, and exterior foam side sponsons, it delivers unmatched stability while the full interior foam liner muffles tackle box clatter and shifting feet.
