Bowrider
Bowriders are an extremely popular boat type among all kinds of boaters—from those brand new to boating, to seasoned veterans who have spent years on the water. If you ask anyone who’s been boating a long time what their first boat was, odds are better than even they’ll tell you it was a bowrider.
Why? Well, bowriders are versatile, which is why nearly every boat manufacturer offers a bowrider line, so there are a lot of choices on the market.
That’s good news for new buyers. Lots of choices mean you can find exactly what you’re looking for, whether it’s your first boat or your fifth. Lots of choices can require more effort on your part to find what you want, but this is a first-world problem. Searching for your first boat is exciting and fun, so enjoy the hunt.
