Choosing Your Perfect Boat
Choosing the right boat is an exciting decision, and at Current Watersports, we’re here to help you find the perfect fit. As boaters ourselves, we know how important it is to escape the busyness of life and enjoy time on the water. That’s why we offer only the most reliable and trusted boat brands in the industry. Whether you choose a MasterCraft Wake and Ski Boat, Crest Pontoon, or Cobalt Boat, you’re investing in a boat with a strong legacy of performance and durability. Whether you’re looking for the best wakes and waves for watersports, a casual cruise, or a balance of both, we have the boat to match your lifestyle. Here are some things to consider when deciding which boat best fits your lifestyle:
1. How Many People Will You Typically Boat With?
If you’re planning on spending most of your time with family or large groups of friends, you’ll want a boat with plenty of space and seating. Mastercraft, Crest, and Cobalt all offer a wide variety of layouts and sizes to ensure that your group is comfortable with plenty of room for seating and storage.
2. Where Will You Store Your Boat?
Consider the size of your garage, storage area or boat slip. All of our boat brands offer varying size options, so whether you need something compact for easy storage and towing or a larger model for hosting friends and family, we can find the right fit for you. It is important to think about where you will store your boat when it’s not in use and how you’ll transport it to the lake.
3. How Big Is Your Lake? Are There Any Restrictions?
If you are boating on a small lake or one with restrictions, a Crest pontoon or smaller Mastercraft might be ideal for you. If you are on a larger lake or looking for speed and versatility, a larger model MasterCraft or Cobalt will offer high performance and fun.
4. What’s Your Lifestyle on the Water?
Watersports – If your days are filled with wakeboarding, wakesurfing and/or skiing, MasterCraft is hands-down the best option. Engineered specifically for watersports, MasterCraft delivers unmatched performance and reliability.
Casual Cruiser – If you love relaxing days on the water, sunset cruises, or entertaining friends, Crest Pontoons are designed for comfort, space and smooth rides.
A Mix of Both – If you want luxury cruising with the option for watersports, Cobalt Boats are the perfect balance.
5. Manufacturer Warranty & Reliability
All three of our brands — MasterCraft, Crest, and Cobalt — come with excellent manufacturer warranties, ensuring long-lasting protection and reliability. No matter which boat you choose, you can count on exceptional quality and peace of mind.
6. Budget
