2017 2017 Cruisers Sport Series 338 Bow Rider

Step aboard and you notice right away how thoughtfully the 338’s deck is laid out for actual use, not just dockside looks. Deep, secure freeboard and wide walk-throughs make it easy to move from the wraparound bow lounge to the aft cockpit without squeezing past friends. The electrically actuated engine hatch doubles as a sunpad backrest, turning the swim platform into a private waterfront terrace. Below, the cabin has enough headroom to change comfortably and stash gear, with climate control and a real door for privacy. Subtle touches like stainless grab rails where you instinctively reach, cockpit galley with sink and fridge, and cavernous in-floor storage show this boat was designed by people who spend long days on the water.

This 338 Bow Rider makes particular sense for local waters where conditions can shift from calm to choppy in a single outing. The generous beam and substantial hull carry you confidently through afternoon chop, while the open bow and expansive cockpit are ideal for sandbar rafting, waterfront dining runs, and long no-wake stretches. Joystick control is a real advantage around tight marinas and busy fuel docks, making close-quarters maneuvering far less stressful. With a comfortable cabin, enclosed head, and serious storage, it’s easy to pack for full-day adventures or spontaneous overnights without moving up to a full-size cruiser.
