A fresh update to a perennial favorite.
by Craig Ritchie
Four Winns is known for the attention to detail it brings to its boat designs, and that’s perfectly illustrated by the all-new HD3 deckboat.
Riding on the company’s Stable-Vee hull that provides stability at rest and flat cornering underway, the HD3 looks sporty just sitting at the dock. Thanks to the modified V-hull, the deckboat rides and handles like a bowrider.
Boarding from the dock is a snap thanks to the MarineMat-covered swim platform. The stern is dominated by the full-width sun lounge, which can be adjusted for aft- or forward-facing seating. A starboard-side walkthrough leads into the cockpit through a stylish stainless transom gate that keeps children and pets from wandering too far.
The interior upholstery is rich and comfortable, thanks in part to discreet integrated bolsters. Under-seat storage compartments are spacious and neatly finished to protect gear. A metal bracket accommodates the removable cockpit table, which can also be positioned in the bow or on the swim platform.
Comfort Ride bucket seats at the consoles both rotate and slide, and each has a flip-up bolster. Opening the port console reveals a spacious change room that can be outfitted as a head.
“The HD3 has the enclosed head, which, for most boaters, is a true must-have option,” says Hayden Hall at Hall’s Sports Center. “Even if you don’t use it as a bathroom, it makes for a great storage compartment.”
An available surf package includes a variety of wake-enhancement features, including a ballast system and a flat panel helm display. An electrically folding wake tower is also available.
Step through that stylish windshield and find spacious bow seating that can be enhanced with a filler cushion. Up front, a bow swim platform with its own retractable ladder adds even more utility to what is already a truly impressive boat.
