Lets see what size and type of boat everyone has

[Alex F]

Well, my boat is yacht certified as well, but it's still a sport boat/bow rider:grin:.

I am begining to fell very out numbered though...

I remember that 260DA was the first boat size that had the yacht certification. This is why I said that this is confusing and sort of unfair to the boats that trully qualify as yachts. This must be another SR marketing trick. :huh:

So, who can help us to interpret the true meening of the SR's yacht certification and got the official standards?

Just bought 1989 Sea Ray 200 CC 4.3L w/Alpha 1

So the difference between a Sport Cruiser and a Sport Yacht is determined by Sea Ray (in any particular year) and the Club Sea Ray Board forum classifications (based on Sea Ray once upon a time).
LOA advertised, and actual length don't really matter unless you are talking to a stranger, friend, or a dockmaster....
My 370 takes 40' of dock unless I am transient.

IIRC, the Yacht certification is a NMMA thing. NMMA gives yacht certification for boats over 27' LOA that meet their critera for build and components and do not need to have load limits.

I am from Lake county (IN) and I only voted ONCE (sport yacht), but I still have my 270DA so you can add another one for sport cruiser.

I just purchased a 2008 factory leftover Bayliner 320 last September. Here she is being off-loaded. This will be my 5th boat. My wife and I boat on Raystown Lake in Pennsylvania.
