The guide boat

Beneteau Antares 650 HB

Your fishing days take place from a fully equipped boat for trolling on Lake Vänern and Lake Vättern. The spacious cabin offers shelter from wind and weather, the chance to warm up on cold days and a comfortable place for a cup of coffee between bites. There are also berths for rest and a TV for children or others who want a break from fishing. This makes the boat a safe and comfortable platform for families, beginners and experienced anglers alike.

On board you will find

  • Suzuki 140 hp outboard
  • Modern GPS/plotter and sonar
  • Radar
  • AIS
  • VHF with DSC
  • Autopilot
  • Fish Hawk
  • Complete trolling equipment
  • Life jackets and flotation suits
  • Safety equipment, fire extinguisher, distress flares, PLB1, portable VHF, first aid kit
  • Toilet
  • Possibility to heat food and drink

Safety on board always comes first. If the weather does not allow safe fishing, the day is moved in agreement with the guest.

The instruments on board provide good information for the fishing. A FishHawk shows the speed down at depth, so we can keep the right pace where the lures are fishing.
