Hit the Deck: Hours of Fun in a Deck Boat

Deck BoatA deck boat is a powerboat typically used for family fun, fishing, cruising, and a variety of water sport activities such as knee boarding, wake boarding, skiing, and tubing. Many believe the deck boat is the SUV of the boating world as the popular deck boats are sleek, versatile, affordable, and durable. Constructed of fiberglass or aluminum and designed with a V-hull, deck boats are both fast and highly maneuverable. Of the two choices, aluminum is 50% lighter in weight, more fuel efficient, requires less maintenance, and is easier to load on to a trailer.

Deck boats offer fun on the water for family and friends. Find deck boats for sale by boat dealers, conveniently listed by state and city under the "Boat Dealers" pull down navigation above.

With a more open deck space, deck boats accommodate a higher number of passengers. Some models come equipped with various accessories for skiing and other water sports.

Many deck boats have retractable bimini tops, which offer great shade and protection from the elements when open or allow for tanning and the ability to reach faster speeds when closed. If your deck boat does not have a bimini top, you are missing a great accessory.

Kids in the Front of a Deck BoatA few of the top deck boat manufacturers include Hurricane, Suncruiser, Crownline, Chaparral, and Tahoe, all of which are for sale new or used at most leading boat retailers. Other sources for used deck boats are your local classifieds, online boat classifieds or boat trader magazines and newspapers.
