A Beginner's Guide to Bowrider Boats

Bowrider boats have a unique layout, which leads to a unique boating experience. Read on to learn more about these popular models.

The Design

The average boat only has seating in the middle and the rear of the model.

With bowrider boats, there is additional seating in the bow (right ahead of the helm). 

Passengers can sit right in the front of the boat, giving them the best possible views of the scenery around them!

The Size

Most bowrider boats are on the smaller side, usually under 35 feet long. The small size means you won't want to take these vessels out on extremely choppy waterways, but they will be well-suited for adventures in mild conditions.

The Performance

Bowrider boats range in the amount of performance that they offer. 

Some models offer less power, which is a great match for those new to boating or those wanting leisurely trips around the waterway.

Other models are designed to deliver adrenaline-fueled adventures. These bowrider boats are a good match for thrill seekers and those wanting to tow watersports enthusiasts.

The Uses

Bowrider boats can be used in a wide range of marine activities. Gather up family and friends for a scenic trip around the lake. Head out on a fishing trip and try to catch "the big one". Tow your kids in an inner tube or try your hand at waterskiing. The list of possible bowrider boat adventures goes on and on!
