A
sport yacht may best described as a sedan with a blend of classic and contemporary
styling. It traditon of mahogany-planked, high-speed runabouts, sport 
yachts
offer both pleasing proportions and power, making them a joy to own and use.
In the early years a “cruiser” implied a narrow, deep V hull, often
built of wood. Classic cruisers came with a lot of polished teak and brass.
Today's cruiser has a large hull with generous, comfortable interiors, designed
for safety rather than speed.
In many cases there is a large teak-covered swimplatform that provides safe and convenient access onboard from the dock. Some offer a tender garage that hinges open on a power lift to allow for a dinghy to be stored and retrieved. These platforms can also serve as a launching cradle for personal watercraft.
The deck is designed for comfort afloat. On many sport yachts you'll find electric barbeques, refrigerator and an icemaker. Often a dining table drops to serve as a coffee table or, down lower still, as a sunpad.
Modern
cruisers are provided with huge staterooms for both owners and guests and also
have adequate accommodation for overnight guests. Most cruisers have seating
on the aft deck or cockpit for several guests.
A
wet bar is standard equipment as is a freshwater wash down for that shower after
a, overboard swim. Cruisers are represented by such well known brands as Carver,
Sea Ray, Bayliner,
Meridian, Cruisers,
and Silverton.
