To take full advantage of the proven z-plane hull, Stingray designed their new-for-next-season 225 series while still remembering to keep the boater in mind. Let's start with the extended running surface of the hull beneath the integrated swim platform that produces a great hole-shot time to plane. Equally functional is the deep freeboard and a spacious cockpit complete with a truly useable rectangular table. The walk-thru companionway converts with a filler cushion into a sunpad, providing both the integrity of a full size transom and a bench seat over the generous-sized swimplatform. Pop-up cleats all around, a great stereo system and a built-in cooler are just some of the standard amenities that complete this very functional package.
