With its aggressive styling, eye-catching graphics and elegant appointments, the Mercury-powered Challenger 2000 model was designed to attract a crowd, but engineered to escape it. By combining the conveniences of a swim platform, sun pad, ice chest and CD stereo, with performance in the form of precision handling and quick acceleration, we made the Challenger 2000 boat the best of both worlds. Why not make it a part of yours?
