When buying a boat, versatility is an important feature. One of the most versatile types of boats is the deck boat, which can serve a variety of purposes. If you’re not sure whether a deck boat is right for you, this list of uses will help you narrow down your options.

Swimming

Many deck boats have extended swimming platforms that allow you and your passengers to easily access the water when you drop anchor in the middle of your favorite lake. Kids and adults can climb onto the platform to exit the water after a refreshing swim.

Fishing

If you find a deck boat that has features like swivel seats, rod holders, and livewells, then you can take it on a fishing trip. Gather your friends and family, pack your tackle box, and fill up a cooler with snacks for a fun day casting your lines into the water.

Watersports

Do you or your family or friends enjoy watersports like water skiing, wakeboarding, or wakesurfing? Or would your kids love riding in inner tubes? A deck boat can be equipped with a towing eye, ballast, and a powerful motor that can make towing watersports riders and inner tubers simple as pie.
