Alumacraft Edge 185 Sport:
Available with 115-HP to 175-HP
The Alumacraft Edge 185 Sport has a flexible design that caters to anglers, families, and tow-sports enthusiasts, and is offered with outboard engines ranging from 115-hp to 175-hp. We tested her with an Evinrude E-TEC G2 150 H.O. – somewhere in the middle of that range – so that consumers could get a good idea of how she will perform with a lower or higher horsepower engine. Either way, she has prodigious 2-stroke low-end torque, which a light boat like this needs to quickly get on plane.

Catamaran Stability and Space
in a Luxury Yacht
The 28'4" (8.63 m) beam of the Horizon PC74 gives her onboard living areas that rival much larger yachts in space, and at the same time adds great beam stability in offshore crossings. The sharp forward entry of the twin hulls delivers a soft ride in choppy seas, and port and starboard joysticks on the aft deck ease docking chores. She's powered with twin 1,136-hp Caterpillar C18 ACERT diesels, delivering a top speed of 24 knots.
