Stable Vee Hull & Joystick Control

Four Winns H290

The Four Winns H290 is a large bowrider that can carry a crowd at speed thanks to twin V-8 sterndrive power. Hole-shot time was just 3.4 seconds, making her very capable for tow-sports. Hullside windows are a styling touch that lets light into the compact accommodations belowdecks.

Grady-White Freedom 215:


Salty, Versatile Dual Console

Grady-White Freedom 215

The classic broken sheer of the Grady-White Freedom 215 drew our eye to her proud bow, where her flare, hard chine, and running strakes all contribute to a dry ride. The dual console benefits from the company's heavy-duty, salt-ready build offering a solid feel and easy handling. Our test revealed a quick time to plane of 4.2 seconds and a top speed of 42.1 mph with a Yamaha F200.
