Conquest 345 - Review 2023

Winner of the 2014 NMMA Innovation Award, the 345 Conquest combines all the amenities for a fun-filled day on the water with the features you need for serious offshore fishing—all in a spacious, sophisticated, super comfortable, and reliable layout.

Starting with the fishing features, there are rod holders on top behind the fly bridge as well as 3 at the aft deck. There are dual fishboxes, tackle storage drawers, and an easy-to-reach port insulated livewell for easy to reach bait

In addition, well thought-out jump seats that fold away to offer more fishing room as well comfortable leaning posts, which are then complemented by the stainless-steel toe rails.

Also, a nice and convenient port prep station with a fully equipped pull-out prep area, dedicated cooler storage with a 35-quart Yeti cooler, and the best part, an electric grill to prepare warm meals and cook whatever you happen to catch that day right at the spot—it doesn’t get any fresher than this!

The grill is designed to minimize smoke to maximize comfort.

The cockpit cabin boasts comfortable seating as well as starboard cockpit wet bar for added convenience.

Belowdecks, a cozy and roomy private cabin offers pleasant sleeping quarters for long-distance trips. It features the award-winning Dynamic Cabin System that converts a V-berth dinette table into a plush queen-sized island bed with the push of a button.

There’s also a starboard settee that converts to a double berth as well as U-shape seating that can turn into another berth—a great boat for large families and groups of friends. Otherwise, it can be used for more storage.

Plus, a 28-inch flat-screen TV, a DVD player, a fully-equipped galley, and an enclosed head with a pull-out showerhead and VacuFlush toilet.

Regarding her performance, the Triple Mercury FourtStroke Verado engines paired with the Joystick Piloting reward you with outstanding power and control. Also, due to her deep V hull, large foredeck, and a windshield that goes all the way to the hardtop, she can handle anything you throw at her.

The V-Hull in particular makes the 345 Conquest able to rock the blue sea offshore cruising challenges that you want.

Powered by Triple Mercury 400 Verado, the Conquest 345 reached a top speed of 56.4 mph at 6800 rpm. Time to plane was 9.7 seconds.

Price starts at $537,500.
