Anticipation Those first few moments of a boating day are something special. The flurry of activity as you load up the cooler, PFDs and gear… the triumphant shove away from the dock… the excited grins on your kids’ faces or the steely determination in your fishing buddy’s eyes… Those first few moments are where the thrill of anticipation becomes fully realized, when waiting turns into doing. And what could be better than that? At Lowe, we continue to enjoy a period of growth, investing in innovative solutions to your boating needs. The fleet of new models and array of refinements we introduced last fall are now being put to good use out on the water, and it’s been terrific to hear feedback from our customers on how they’ve been using their boats to the fullest. You’ll meet a few of them in this issue of the magalog, including angler and retired military veteran Ted Winters (page 12), who uses his Stinger 175 to catch fish and soak up the Florida sunshine; and the Simon family (page 8), who explore the lakes of Arkansas aboard their SF 214 pontoon.

ENGINE CARE MADE EASY You know to fill your tank before it runs dry, but how well do you know your gasoline? While ethanol-blended gasoline is the standard for most automotive uses, it can actually cause serious problems for your Lowe if not treated properly. Luckily, there’s ValvTect. The fuel experts at ValvTect have developed two all-inclusive gasoline solutions that account for fuel stability and phase separation, while also effectively preventing corrosion of internal engine components. ValvTect Marine Gasoline contains a special corrosion inhibitor to prevent deterioration from ethanol and non-ethanol gasoline. Since E10 (10% ethanol and 90% gasoline) can hold up to 25 times more water than pure gasoline, this can cause rusting of fuel-system components. When tested in E10, using the petroleum industry’s required test for corrosion, ValvTect Ethanol Gasoline Treatment received a perfect “A” rating for completely preventing oxidization and corrosion. Protecting your Lowe boat’s engine has never been easier. Visit valvtect.com to learn more.

Trust. It’s an unspoken principle in the relationship between a boater and his or her vessel. Without it, you never really achieve the goals that are so inherent to boating: feeling at ease, connecting with nature, having fun. With trust comes confidence and peace of mind—the freedom to not only pursue your boating goals, but to accomplish them, each and every time out. “The Lowe reputation is built on trust. Our customers know they can rely on their Lowe pontoon or fish boat to provide long-lasting quality, durability and reliable performance,” says Lowe President Ben Cast. “At the same time, they know they’re getting the best value for their hard-earned dollar. We feel strongly that the customer should never have to pay extra for quality, and should never accept sacrifices in the name of savings. That’s why we’re so excited to introduce a new series of entry-level pontoons—to offer all the strengths of the Lowe brand at an even more accessible price.” Slated to make their official debut later this year, the new pontoons will be available in three deck lengths—16, 18 and 20 feet—each with a wide 96-inch beam for loads of elbow-room, and each available in two

configurations. The Cruise models are designed for families who love to get out there and play; they’re the ideal platform to launch a thousand swan dives and soak up unlimited hours of sunlight. Naturally, each includes ample storage space for all the gear that such excursions require, from life jackets, tubes and pool noodles to spare bottles of soda and SPF. The Fish & Cruise models, meanwhile, are made for pontoon-goers who know that no day on the water is complete without wetting a line. Features and options include fishfinders, trolling motors, livewells and pedestal seats, and plenty of rod storage comes standard. “You won’t find us cutting corners with the entry-level series,” says David Kirkland, Lowe vice president of commercial operations. “It’s about how much can we deliver, not how much can we take away. The end result is a lineup of pontoons that focuses on the true heart of pontooning: being out on the water, relaxing and enjoying the company of family and friends.” Of course, part of the joy of pontooning is exploring new corners of the lake or finding untapped fishing spots. That’s why every Lowe pontoon comes with a reliable and efficient Mercury® engine, delivering plenty of horsepower to fuel far-flung adventures. Manufactured in

the state-of-the-art Lowe production facility, these new pontoons benefit from the cutting-edge technologies and decades of experience that go into every Lowe. You’ll see it in details like 23-inch-diameter pontoon logs and 24-inch cross-member centers, ensuring great stability; stainless-steel hardware and heavy-duty rub rails; and tall, sturdy fences, available in an array of colors. Each new pontoon features comfortable seating throughout, including a wide sunpad (on larger models) for catching rays, as well as a 7-foot Bimini top, for passengers seeking a little refuge from those rays. Factor in an easy-to-operate helm station with speed, tach and fuel gauges, and a swim platform and boarding ladder at the rear, and you’ve got everything you need to achieve boating bliss. “We’re really looking forward to debuting this new line of pontoons,” Cast says. “It’s a chance to make the Lowe pontooning lifestyle accessible to more boaters than ever before, and it’s further evidence of our commitment to providing the best value on the water.”

Some of the best rewards lie in the hard-to-reach places. Like the breathtaking view from atop a steep mountain trail. Or the last jar of sauce on the highest shelf at the grocery store. Or, perhaps most aptly, the school of hungry fish or the trophy pintail residing along the skinniest, most remote branch of the river. And yet with the right tools, those rewards become significantly more attainable. That’s why Lowe is pleased to add to its formidable lineup the new Roughneck Shallow Water series, a fleet of boats that deliver you safely and smoothly to your destination, no matter how murky, muddy or miniscule. Mastery of the shallows is all but guaranteed.
Head Deep into the Shallows LOWE GEARS UP TO ROLL OUT THE NEW SHALLOW WATER SERIES, GIVING ANGLERS GREATER ACCESS TO HARD-TO-REACH PLACES
The Shallow Water series answers growing demand from customers for boats better suited to tight spots—the sort of waterways that outdoorsmen frequently find themselves faced with. And the series is born of insights from actual hunters and anglers: that is, the craftsmen who make up the talented Lowe engineering and manufacturing teams. “Not only do our employees have decades of boatbuilding experience, the vast majority of them are also dedicated outdoorsmen and -women themselves,” says Lowe President Ben Cast. “The insights of our own staff are as vital to the process as those of our customers. Taken together, we have a rich understanding of how our boats are used and where there’s the most appetite for new variations.” Designed for great versatility and effortless operation, every Shallow Water model features proven Lowe all-aluminum construction, meaning they are lightweight for maximum efficiency, yet ultra-durable for years of heavy use. Each Shallow Water hull features a flat bottom and
(6
formed-in keels and extruded ribs, with optional diamondplate transom corner caps, providing excellent access to tricky destinations and fortification against damage from hazards that might be hiding in the mud. Debuting this summer, the Shallow Water lineup includes a range of sizes and configurations suited to a variety of activities and species. The models are also dealer-customizable—boaters can choose from an array of dealer-installed options, including an integrated side console. Standard Mercury® tiller engines deliver reliable performance and terrific fuel efficiency, while optional Mercury Tunnel Jet propulsion is available for extra protection against the type of damage that rocks or ledges could inflict. “The Shallow Water boats bring traditional Lowe versatility and durability to a new segment of the outdoor
lo.sp15.techniques_Layout 1 4/9/15 2:59 PM Page 7

market,” says David Kirkland, Lowe vice president of commercial operations. “They offer a new level of accessibility to areas that other boats couldn’t safely reach. We’re excited to expand the capabilities of our lineup even further.” With all that capability and dealer customizability, these boats are as easy on the budget as they are dominant in the shallows. In other words, it’s time to erase the phrases “out of bounds” and “out of reach” from your vocabulary. “We’re eager to introduce the Shallow Water models this year,” Cast says. “Lowe is dedicated to meeting our customers’ needs and exceeding their expectations. We’re confident these boats will find themselves at the center of many successful outings.” 7

FUN FUN Story by Jennifer Chesak Photos by Lance Ramsey and Kimberly Simon
Sometimes the name on the map just plain sounds like a good time. And sometimes you visit and discover the character of the place lives up to its label. Indeed, the following six lakes are as much fun for pontoon play as they are to say. Some have legendary lake monsters, while others have monster fish. All of them boast big entertainment. So go on: Tie up your tongue, untie your boat and let the long weekends begin!

Lake Okoboji
LAKE OUACHITA Surrounded by the peaks of the Ouachita Mountains, Lake Ouachita is arguably one of the most beautiful lakes of the south. Named after the Washita Native American tribe, the lake is just a hop west from the natural-spa haven of Hot Springs, Arkansas. Quaint cabin rentals tucked in the Ouachita National Forest give visitors the feeling of solitude, but this lake also has a friendly faction of diehard boaters. Jeremy and Kimberly Simon (at right) and their three boys, Trevor (7), Trenton (5) and Tyler (2), have made the lake their summertime destination for cruising on their Lowe SF 214 pontoon. “It’s where I learned to water-ski,” Kimberly says, “so it was only natural for us to take our boys there.” The Simons live two hours away in Alma, Arkansas, and Kimberly adds, “The kids asked me every day this winter if it’s time to go back to Lake Ouachita.” The Simons bought their boat from Copher’s Boat Center in Fort Smith, Arkansas and couldn’t be more pleased with the service they’ve received. LAKE MINNETONKA A former Minnesota governor gave this lake its name, which means “Big Water” in the Dakota tribe language. Lake Minnetonka, at more than 14,000 acres, is definitely a behemoth, and its many coves, islands and peninsulas are a blast to explore. Anglers will be pleased with the variety of freshwater fish like muskie, northern pike, perch and the ever-tasty walleye. And what’s a fun lake without a lake monster? Visitors should be on the lookout for “Lou,” the legendary giant sturgeon that is said to lurk in these waters. Lake Minnetonka is located west of the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul. When it’s time to come off the water, a trip to Camp Snoopy, an amusement park inside the Mall of America, should be your next stop. Cabela’s in Rogers, Minnesota, is the place to go if you’re looking to get into a Lowe this summer.

WEST AND EAST LAKE OKOBOJI By the names of these two lakes, one might think they’re located in a far-off land, but in fact they’re as close as northern Iowa. West and East Okoboji are part of the Iowa Great Lakes. The name is possibly derived from the Dakota language word Okoboozhy, which means “place of rest” or “reeds.” The Okoboji region is a hot spot all summer long, but especially during the Fourth of July for the phenomenal fireworks display. The exceptionally clear waters make the Okoboji lakes great places for swimming and watersports. Anglers like the bountiful yellow perch, bluegill and walleye. Although there have been sightings, so far no one has caught the aptly named lake monster, “Obojoki,” a creature said to roam the east lake. Malone Motorsports in Monroe, Iowa, serves the Lowe boater needs of the Iowa Great Lakes. LAKE OKEECHOBEE Okee dokee, let’s talk Okeechobee. This Central Florida lake is just begging to have a song written about it. The name comes from the Hitchiti tribe language, with oki meaning water and chubi meaning big. Okeechobee holds the glory of being the largest freshwater lake contained entirely in one state (in the 48 contiguous states). It’s famous for its big bass, but crappie are popular, too. Okeechobee is a bird watcher’s paradise with herons, cranes, egrets and even bald eagles taking refuge there. The American alligator is also a resident, but the most talked about monster in the region roams the land: Alleged sightings of the “Okeechobee Ogre” describe a skunk ape similar to Big Foot. M & M Marine Services in Fort Pierce, Florida, is the nearby Lowe dealer, and a certified ogre-free zone.
LAKE CHAUBUNAGUNGAMAUG No need for a lake monster here; the name is beast enough. If you find this lake hard to pronounce, simply call it by its other name, Webster Lake. Oddly, the full title is an even bigger mouthful: Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg. In the Nipmuc language it means “Fishing Place at the Boundaries— Neutral Meeting Grounds” for its location in Massachusetts near the Connecticut border. With the long-form moniker, the lake earns the distinction of having the longest place name in the United States. Regardless of what you call it, the fishing is awesome with bass, trout, catfish and pickerel aplenty. And this quaint New England retreat is a great place for whirling the kids around on a tube or for building sandcastles on one of its many beaches. Baert Marine in Middleton, Massachusetts, sells Lowe boats in the region. Wherever you end up cruising this summer, you’ll be having a blast if it’s on a Lowe pontoon. And if you need road-trip travel tunes, there happen to be three songs written about Lake Chaubunagungamaug. Then again, for your tongue’s sake, you might be better off sticking with the radio.
WHEREVER YOU END UP CRUISING THIS SUMMER, YOU’LL BE HAVING A BLAST IF IT’S ON A LOWE PONTOON.

SUNSHINE STATE OF MIND Story by Jennifer Chesak Photos by Robert Glover
Ted Winters is the kind of guy who doesn’t sit still for long. He grew up hunting, trapping and fishing in upstate New York before serving many years abroad in the military. And now that he’s retired, he’s out as often as possible stalking Florida bass with his Lowe Stinger 175. “It’s just relaxing,” Ted says. “I enjoy being out in the air and in the world whether I catch fish or not.”

A LOWE STINGER 175 HELPS A RETIRED VETERAN GET AFTER THE BASS AND CHILL OUT IN SUNNY FLORIDA
lo.sp15.Fishing_Layout 1 4/9/15 3:21 PM Page 14
He and his friend Bud Harper, a fellow RV road-tripper and angler, like to head out on the lakes that are a short drive from Ted’s home in Lady Lake, Florida. Lake Griffin in Lake Griffin State Park near Leesburg is a favorite for the guys. They often throw a few lines in at the dock before launching the Lowe, just to get warmed up. On this particular day, Bud happens to hook up with a surprise bonefish. “Hey, sometimes you get something you weren’t even expecting,” Ted says with a laugh. Ted’s first experience fishing from a Lowe was on a friend’s boat, which quickly cemented his decision to purchase one of his own. “I like the way it handles,” he says of the sleek red Stinger 175. “And I can get into shallower places than I could go with my old boat.” After finding a spot on the lake, Ted fires up the MotorGuide® trolling motor, and the guys prepare their lines. For catching bass, Ted says he likes to use Motor Oil worms and Rat-L-Traps. “Once in a while I use a spinner bait or something. And sometimes it seems you could throw bubble gum down there and catch more fish!” He throws his head back in laughter. After rustling around in his tackle box, he fishes out two lures. “You see these? These are the kind that won’t work down here,” he jokes. Turns out he’s hung onto tackle from when he used to catch salmon up in Ontario.
( 14
Up north, Ted first got into hunting and fishing after some classmates introduced him to the sports. “I started out rabbit hunting and then went to pheasant and then turkey and then on to big game like deer and bear,” he says. For fishing, he favored plying for salmon, but he also caught the occasional walleye. “I love hunting and fishing. It’s all I do.” Ted and his wife migrated south after she was offered a job in central Florida. “It was 16 degrees below zero in upstate New York, no joke,” he says of the day they visited the Sunshine State

to check it out. “I didn’t think I would like it down here. But I couldn’t believe how nice and green and warm it was. I don’t have to shovel snow any more. And I can find my car when I go outside!” The move to Florida proved to have other benefits as well. Ted says he’s met several veterans who live in the area, and he has good access to medical care, which he needs for injuries sustained while in the service. He has served in nearly every branch of the U.S. military except for the Air Force. He was in the Marines when he fought in the Vietnam War. “The veterans are taking very good care of me down here,” he says. “We have a nice sense of camaraderie.” Ted bought his Lowe earlier this spring from Millers Boating Center in Ocala, Florida. “They really take care of you,” Ted says of the dealership. “They call you once in a while to make sure
( 16
you are doing well. And they’re honest. You can trust them. If they say something, you can count on it.” The Lowe Stinger’s comfortable seats and bow and stern livewells were big selling points for Ted, and he loves his 60-hp Mercury® FourStroke. “It’s good on fuel,” he says. “You can go miles on it. Plus, it’s really quiet.” Ted and Bud spend a little more time out on Lake Griffin, but it seems the only true bite they’ll have for the day is the bonefish Bud caught and released back at the dock. The guys don’t mind, though. They sit back, enjoy the cool spring air and look out across at the marshy shoreline at Lake Griffin State Park while shooting the breeze. After a while, they decide to call it a day and head back to the launch. “It’s a pretty boat,” Ted says after he and Bud have loaded the Stinger 175 back onto its trailer. “Everyone who has seen it has said so.” And with that, the friends climb into their truck and head for home. Yet it’s probably not the last Ted will see of nature for the day; when not fishing or traveling around in an RV, he admits he still can’t get enough of the outdoors. “I like to watch Animal Planet or the Discovery Channel,” Ted says, grinning. “I admit it.”
