This view from the stern shows the passage to the stern and the wide decks to each side of the console. From the cockpit to the bow, the deck is all the same height so anglers can work a fish anywhere in the boat. Custom built for the boat, the livewells are in the aft corners of the cockpit and designed with rounded corners, a blue finish inside, and windows in the sides for easy checks. The catamaran design allows for a centrally positioned walkthrough to the stern, which is welcome for diving, snorkeling or just hanging out at the sandbar. The sponsons have twin steps, 26-degrees of deadrise at the stern, a 55-degree entry at the bow and strakes placed to provide lift to enhance efficiency. The twin hulls of the Renaissance Prowler 42 are each asymmetrical between their port and starboard halves, much as we see on racing cats. The added space that comes with a 12’ (3.66 m) beam gives the boat a wealth of space in the bow and cockpit areas. Thanks to high-tech, weight-saving composite construction, the boat can be powered by as few as two outboards or as many as four like our test model. Renaissance designed the Prowler 42 to be a luxury catamaran that can be set up for offshore fishing, day boating or myriad on-water activities, including diving, cruising or a combination of them all. With quad 300-hp Evinrude E-TEC G2 outboards, the Prowler 42 can hit speeds approaching 70 mph.
