Florida-based Streamline Boats was founded in 2017 with the goal of building customized centre console boats for everyday boating and fishing enthusiasts. When expert boatbuilder Pedro (Pete) Garcia teamed up with partners Lazaro Hernandez and Luis Blanco, that was the goal. Their 26′ did just that. But the Streamline 45 aims a little higher. It’s built to compete with other, larger centre consoles on the market. The newest Streamline 45′ kicks performance up another notch.
The Streamline 45′
When it comes to versatility and all-around fishability, centre console boats really deliver. The Streamline 45′ has been no exception. It competes with the best fishing boats its size. Streamline Boats debuted their 45′ centre console in 2019 with quad outboards. Like other centre consoles, it can handle a variety of fishing environments and sea conditions. These types of fishing boats also give you more horsepower and a better range than smaller CCs.
This fast vessel offers a versatile fishing platform. It’s roomy and comfortable enough for pleasure cruising with the family. It is also fast and functional enough to make fishing with your mates a real pleasure.
All Streamline 45s are fully customisable. From the boat colours and decking style to engine size, fishfinding gear, and audio systems, you decide how your boat will be built.

Thoughtful Design Maximizes Space
The 2022 Streamline 45′ is built for fun and function. Like all centre console fishing boats, it has the advantage of a walkaround deck. With 360 degree fishability it allows for any type of fishing style from chasing down marlin to deep dropping for swordfish.
In addition to centre console fishability, Streamline’s flagship offers oodles of options and some nice creature comforts. It starts at the spacious bow area with its huge, comfortable lounger. There’s an optional large cooler tucked under the footrest.
Optional wrap-around loungers at the tip of the bow make it a great place for relaxing in the sun. Or have a custom sail shade installed to keep you and your guests out of the sun. There’s an extra fish box and easy anchor access as well.
The cockpit is massive and features a top-of-the-line interior by Twin Marine. It offers seating for at least six across two rows. The front row features three generous seats with armrests and fold-up bolsters. The second row offers upholstered bench seating.
The air-conditioned helm is well suited for two 24″ Garmin touch screens. All the controls are at your fingertips, including autopilot, audio system, switchboard and the optional assisted docking system.
The oversized hardtop includes a panoramic, retractable sunroof. You can choose a sport T-top with a glass windshield instead. Or perhaps you’d prefer a marlin tower with upper station steering. The centre console on the Streamline 45′ is as customisable as the rest of the vessel.
Below deck is a galley with a sink, cooler drawer and optional tackle storage. There’s a bathroom with a small hand-washing sink and a full shower. There’s also a small berth tucked under the bow lounger. And the control panel is wall mounted for easy access.
The stern can accommodate family fun and fishing. You can outfit the mezzanine to your liking. You can include a summer kitchen with a refrigerator drawer, sink, cooktop, and storage bins and can add overhead rod holders and a built-in sounder so the anglers at the back can keep an eye on the fish.
Optional fold-out rear seating on both port and starboard sides gives you plenty of room for your kids or your mates. Fold it up and out of the way when you need the space for serious fishing.
There are two 55-gallon (208L) live wells on either side of the transom. Both two-pump and three-pump Sea Chest live wells are available. Plus, you’ll find plenty of storage in the mezzanine and under the deck.
Some other nice options include a rear dive ladder and gunnel-mounted rod holders. That keeps your rods tucked out of the way but well within reach.

2022 Streamline 45′ Specs
Streamline designed their flagship for longer runs than their smaller fishing boats. The fibreglass composite hull delivers a speedy and smooth ride. At 45′ long and 13′ wide, this boat can handle open seas, making it an excellent choice for both sport and competitive fishing.
Streamline 45′ offers electronics and navigation that competes with the best fishing boats. You get a selection of Airmar transducers and several GMR radar options (18″ dome to 6′ array).
When it comes to electronics they leave it up to the customer for a complete custom setup.
The 45 gets ample power from its quad outboard engines. Outfitted with Mercury 400 Verado i6s, the Streamline 45 can do speeds up to 60 knots (70 mph) with a cruising speed of 40 knots. The outboard setup up is completely customisable for the customers needs.
You can order it with quad Suzuki 350 APXs, quad Yamaha 350 Command Link or 425 XTO engines. There are five Mercury outboard engines to choose from, including 350 or 400 Verado i6s, 400R or 450R V8s, or the new Mercury Marine 600 V12s.
All engine configurations are available in black or white. Or you can have them custom painted to compliment your colour scheme.
The Streamline 45′ can be outfitted with superior sound systems from Fusion or JL Audio. The basic systems include the radio, eight speakers (including 2 subs) and two amps. Additional speakers can be tucked all around the boat, and other upgrades are available.

Quint Outboard Streamline 45′
The latest version of the Streamline 45′ to hit the water is the Quint Outboard CC. Sea trials on the new five-engine boat got underway earlier this year. Everything about this boat screams custom-built.
This Quint Outboard CC is something of an art piece, with a bright orange liner, deck, and cap. The dark grey hull, leaning post, and console create a striking contrast. Even the engines sport a cus! Accents in bold, black, carbon fibre finishes sharpen the look even more. Custom grey, woodgrain decking, and light grey upholstered seating balance the presentation. Of course, yours can be any colours you want.
This 45′ includes all the bells and whistles. There’s top-of-the-line Garmin navigation and a Mercury joystick at the heated and air-conditioned helm. Upholstered duel row console seating and a panoramic sunroof make this a comfortable place to hang out.
A fusion head unit compliments the premium JL audio system. There are more than 30 JL speakers from bow to stern, including below deck. Plus, the Quint offers tons of storage throughout, including three large baitwells.
There are five features really stand out on the Quint Outboard Streamline 45′.
It’s fast. Really fast.
It has five Mercury 400R V8 engines and a 600-gallon (2300L) fuel tank. So, it easily reaches 60 knots (70 mph) and beyond.
It can go even faster if you want.
This 45′ can handle up to 3000 horsepower. That’s five 600HP engines.
Options, Options, and More Options
You don’t give up any of the options that quickly made the Streamline 45′ one of the best fishing boats its size. The Quint can be just as jazzy.
Below Deck Is Gorgeous
The heated and air-conditioned cabin with its luxe woodgrain finish has an opulent feel. Open the twin skylights to let in the sea breeze. The galley kitchen, private head, full berth, and 32″ flat screen make it a comfortable retreat.
Its Fully Customisable
The quint outboard 45′ is fully customisable, just like the quad outboard 45′. From the colours and finishes to the choice of engines, navigation system, and fishfinding gear, this 45′ can be exactly the boat you want it to be.
This newest incarnation of the Streamline 45′ is built for fun, from family outings to fishing excursions. It all comes down to the options you choose.
The quint engine 45′ is not yet available to order using Streamline’s online build your boat feature. But you can still use it to build a quad outboard 45′ to your liking.
Streamline has a reputation for building customized centre consoles at very competitive prices. Although there’s no price range yet for the quint outboard Streamline 45, a 2022 quad can be nicely outfitted for around $740,000 to $850,000.
