And the new Harris Solstice 250 can ratchet up your level of recreation to untold heights thanks to a bevy of features designed to maximize your time on the water.

“The boat can hold up to 14 people so it’s a great size for a larger family or a big group of friends onboard,” says Betsey Arvai, marketing director for SkipperBud’s. “Plus you can put up to 300 horsepower on it, and it can come with three tubes as well.”

Those tubes offer excellent stability, which aids onboard comfort, as does lounge seating throughout. Find plentiful stowage beneath the seating, which is also shaded by a double Bimini setup above.

The captain sits in a swiveling helm chair that has easy access to a clean interface with a digital throttle and shift and a Simrad screen. CZone technology is also available and makes keeping tabs on all your boat’s systems incredibly easy. Cup holders throughout the boat and an optional six-speaker JL Audio sound system facilitate a party, while an oversized swim platform aft handles boarding and swimming duties. A chunky, stainless steel swim ladder lets guests get in and out of the water with no fear of falling.

The Harris is also kitted out with other goodies, such as a soft-sided cooler, manual fire extinguisher, and a pop-up changing area for when it’s time to ditch your swimwear and hit the bar and grill.

“These boats are popular as lake boats for good reason,” Arvai says. “They’re all about having a good time, and at this size they can easily snug up to your dock or go on a lift if necessary.”

The Solstice is available in a variety of layouts, including a DC dual console floorplan, SL sunlounge layout and more.

If you’re looking for a wash-and-wear, do-it-all pontoon boat with plenty of giddy up and enough bells and whistles to impress the crowd, then the Harris Solstice 250 is most definitely for you.
