**2026 Explorer 172 DC Outboard Jet Boat**

Built in Edmonton, Alberta, by Explorer Industries, the Explorer 172 DC is
designed for boaters who demand rugged construction, shallow-water capability,
and dependable performance. Built for northern rivers, fishing trips, hunting
excursions, and family adventures, this aluminum jet boat is ready to take you
where other boats may not be able to go.

The 172 DC features a versatile dual-console layout, providing comfortable
seating and practical storage for long days on the water. Its durable aluminum
hull is engineered for demanding river conditions, while the UHMW keel strip
helps protect the bottom when navigating shallow water and gravel bars.
Reverse chines contribute to stability and maneuverability, making this boat a
capable choice for exploring Canada's waterways.

Powered by a Yamaha four-stroke jet outboard, the Explorer 172 DC delivers
reliable performance without an exposed propeller beneath the hull. Choose the
power configuration that best suits your needs, with available Yamaha 90/65 or
115/80 jet options.
