Triton Introduces 260 LTS Pro Bay Boat

Triton 260 LTS Pro Sets New Standard For Bay Boats

Ashland City, Tennessee — Serious saltwater anglers are calling the new 260 LTS PRO from Triton “the ultimate bay boat.” With its radical pad hull design and state-of-the-art fishing features, this spectacular fishing machine sets a new standard in the highly competitive bay boat class.

The new 260 LTS PRO (Light Tackle Series) spans 25 feet 5 inches at the centerline and boasts a roomy 8½-foot beam. It rates for outboards ranging from 250 to 350 hp, and delivers incredible performance with engines in the popular 300 hp class.

“We designed and engineered the 260 LTS PRO from the ground up to outfish and outperform all other boats in its class,” said Triton founder Earl Bentz. “We incorporated a pad bottom at the stern, which greatly enhances the 260’s hole shot, maximizes mid-range and top-end performance, and yields greater fuel economy. We also added a substantial bow flair, which serves the dual purpose of keeping the interior of the boat and its occupants exceptionally dry in rough seas while providing hard-core anglers with a massive front casting deck and unmatched storage capacity for tackle and gear.” Read more
