Cruisers Yachts 338 OB:
South Beach Edition/Upscale Dayboat
Some boat owners on lakes across the northern part of America would like a crossover bowrider that is out of the ordinary. But they also want something that’s classy, well-built, and has the prestige that only the builder of larger, multi-million dollar yachts can bestow on a smaller cousin. For them, we suggest the South Beach Edition of the Cruisers Yachts 338 OB. She is not the same ol’, same ol’. With outboard twin 350-hp Mercury Verados, we’ve clocked her at speeds of better than 53 mph.

Galeon 510 Skydeck:
Euro Lines and Inventive Engineering
The Galeon 510 Skydeck combines the sporty lines of a hardtop express cruiser with a flying sun pad with adjoining mini helm. Perhaps the most interesting option is the “beach mode” with side decks that fold out to widen the 14’8” (4.46 m) beam by 5’ (1.52 m). Note the two-stool cocktail bar on the port side. The aft couch rotates to face the swim platform which can lower down.
