Thundercraft (Cadorette Marine) Express 260

Thundercraft boats manufactured by Cadorett marine in Canada is a top quality Hand Laid fiberglass boat with foam core hull construction for strength and light weight.

They were a major competitor to Sea Ray and had avant-garde innovations and options that no others did at the time. You will notice many features on this 1993 model that only showed up on others years later.

The boats home port since 2004 has been on lake Wallenpaupack PA (currently in the water there).

You will notice in the specifications many recent up-grades that I marked with new in bold, since the boat is trailerable and my wife and I would vacation with it on other waters, we needed it to be tip-top shape and reliable. Ownership pride thru-out!

We have recently purchased a live-aboard boat and this is the reason why we are selling it.

This is a fresh water boat and not a hurricane Sandy boat.
