Lowe Boats was founded in 1971 and the company’s innovations since then have often led the industry forward but also resulted in them being awarded more CSI awards than any other aluminum boat company. Their Suncruiser line was rebranded in 2012 under the Lowe Pontoon brand.
The Lowe SS 250XD Super Sport is their largest model in the popular super sport line of family-friendly cruising boats that do it all and at a value-packed price point. The model starts with a 25” diameter tube that is simply larger than competitors’ tubes. To this, Lowe adds a full length keel and 24” cross members, and a 7-ply pressure treated floor with lifetime limited warranty and 22 oz. carpet. The high railing comes in your choice of colours and surrounds a unique layout that is both functional and inviting.
The forward deck features a starboard full length sofa in front of the helm station opposite two low-back pedestal chairs. This leaves lots of floor space for gear, a cooler, or little kids to play underfoot. Moving aft, the helm is opposite the port-side entry gate and aft of that is an l-shaped lounge with removable table. Fully aft there is a wide sunpad along with a starboard side entry gate to the spacious aft deck, stainless ski pylon over the outboard, and re-boarding ladder.
For maximum performance for all of your 15 guests, we’d opt for the XL Performance Package with a 25” center log and the roughwater package that includes lifting strakes & spray deflector. Of course for the full effect, get the full camper canvas enclosure that not only extends your family’s cruising season in the early spring and later fall, but also turns this day-cruiser into a weekend overnighter.
Engine options range from a 150hp outboard up to 200hp with the XL package. Lowe products feature a lifetime limited warranty, and a ten year pro-rated hull warranty. If you are in the market for a pontoon, take the SS 250XD Super Sport out for an on-water test drive this coming spring and you’ll see why they win so many awards.
