On the water-bound highway to life-lasting memories, there’s no surer vehicle than the Northwest 196 Freedom Inboard Jet. With confidence and comfort, the Freedom’s bristling V8 jet power lets you effortlessly maneuver challenging whitewater… scoot cleanly across shallow riffles… and tackle open water. Our brand of versatility also makes the Freedom an ideal tow rig for tubers, wakeboarding or water skiers. Not to mention a capable, all-around fishing machine to suit your nautical fancy. That’s the all-water Freedom for you. It’s yet another Northwest Boats exclusive.
On the full-featured 196 Freedom Inboard Jet, everything you need comes standard, not optional. The construction is Northwest Boats- tough, designed for a lifetime of use with unerring attention to every detail. Our Delta Performance Pad and chine design ensure crisp, sure handling—handy and essential features when you’re running tight, shallow grooves. Whitewater enthusiasts will appreciate a choice of jets to suit their individual boating style. Unbridled power packed into 19’ can only be called Freedom.
