Exterior
Our largest true bowrider, the R30 features a hydraulic swim platform that lowers into the water for easy access, is available with single or twin engines, and boasts custom craftsmanship that beckons passengers to step aboard to experience its luxury for themselves.

Great for water activities, the entire full-width swim platform lowers below the water hydraulically with the push of a button, offering easy access in or out of the water and into the boat.

The wide engine hatch opening allows for easy access, easy maintenance, and storage space access—and the easy-lift hatch is gasket sealed when closed to reduce noise in the cockpit.

Find a polished stainless steel top surface cap to windshield frames and enjoy the brightwork look the windshield possesses—all crafted to reflect heat in the sun and be cooler to the touch.
Features & Innovations
Interior
The R30 offers first-class features like a grand cockpit, sleek, convertible yacht seating, a helm equipped with dual Garmin Glass Cockpit touchscreens, and a head compartment that doubles as a changing room. Plus, a four-person sunpad that invites the entire family to stay just a little longer

Find a compartment with a deep step-down space, a pump-out Porta Potti, a sink console, a tinted skylight, and options that include VacuFlush toilets with or without macerator.

Adjustable to 2 positions—face forward and face aft—with a stainless-steel grab handle for added security in rough water conditions and a heavy-duty steel support/hinge mechanism.

Create a rich nighttime ambiance in the cockpit and bow areas with indirect lighting hidden in interior upholstery side panels that feature RGB selectable color and LED low-power consumption.
