If looks truly are everything, this may well be the best bow rider on the market. This Azure has a very distinctive look with curves everywhere and hardly a square corner to be found. Not only does it make for a very nice looking boat, it provides for a roomy boat that is sleek, yet comfortable.

A large bow rider such as this gives you the room of a deck boat, with the performance and style of a sportier model. You do not have to give up form to get the function you demand.

This Azure has the upgraded 496 MAG engine from Mercruiser. There is a bimini top as well as bow and cockpit covers, and she has been lift kept with a full boat cover.

Azure does not scrimp on quality or details when they build a boat. The extended swim platform adds space and actually enhances the looks. The ladder is tucked away under a hatch and is off to the side to keep swimmers away from the prop. There is a shower and integrated ski tow ring. There is also LED lighting, a three position rear seat sun pad, pressure water and a wet bar. The pull up cleats make for more fun and less fouled lines and stubbed toes.

Little things like an I-pod holder, numerous drink holders, engine room lighting, all point to a well thought out boat.

The comfort is the real selling point however. The cockpit is huge and has stowage that won't quit. In the sole, under the seats and under the wet bar. The L shaped lounge even hides cooler space. The private head is big enough to be a changing room.

The helm has open back bolsters with flip up seats. There is the normal engine gauges, plus a Lowrance LMS-525 plotter, Uniden VHF and a powerful JBL stereo.

Ahead of the windshield, which closes with a magnetic strip to keep it in place in rough weather, is a U shaped settee that will hold several adults. These are ergonomic seats that you may never want to leave. Arm rests are built in to the side and flip down in the center.

Not only is it great looking, very comfortable, it runs like a scared Wahoo. The solid stepped hull, big power and fast design lines will make you think more of a sport boat than a bow rider. Top speeds around 50 will keep you on your toes. 425 HP and duo-prop is a great combination for speed and economy.

This remarkable Azure is in Florida and ready for action. The owner is willing to look at offers as he is moving up.

She is a big girl, but at 8'6” beam will be easily trailered.   The matching trailer is included.

Thanks for checking this out, it is a winner.
