Research 2010 - Stingray Boats - 235CR

The new 235CR is loaded with personality, from its unique split bow rail to its multi-function use. The bow rails originate just below the vent windows on both sides of the deck and rise to a height of approximately nine inches at the bow before making a slight return to the deck to form a split bow entry. A three-step bow boarding ladder and boat fender storage are incorporated into the anchor locker compartment. A bow wash down is conveniently located on the port side.

Cabin entry is accessed through lockable bi-fold doors with smoke Lexan insets. The cabin is built on a full fiberglass liner with sleeping accommodations for two. Inside is spacious berth with ample headroom and seating space for a cuddy this size. Most all cushions have easily accessible storage underneath or house the porta-potti or portable stove. Upon entry is another cabinet-size storage locker and a hi-power marine audio system. Dual lighting accents either side of the bow mirror with twin cabin speakers conveniently anchored to port and starboard. Two more lights are at the opposite end of the cabin nearest the entry-way.

In the cockpit are twin, flip-up bolster seats for the captain and first mate. The interior sidewalls house numerous features, many of which are conveniently out of the way and, at first glance, appear to be hidden. For example, a 13-gallon freshwater tank supplies the onboard sink, which is located just aft of the driver's seat. It is part of a more complete refreshment center that features a starboard countertop with a recessed, removable cooler directly below. Eight oversized stainless steel cup holders are located in the main cockpit area and, with the exception of the sink cup holders, each are anchored in storage shelves in strategic locations.

The 235 features a full fiberglass liner with overboard drains. This full liner allows for ease of maintenance and can be equipped with optional snap-in carpet for more comfort underfoot or just to enhance the look. A quick walk-around of the top deck reveals stainless steel pull-up cleats-strategically located for mooring. And, don't forget the stainless steel framed docking lights located in the forward hull; a great night time boating benefit.

Capping off new features, the 235CR offers a 15-inch wide starboard-side companionway and cockpit step making passenger boarding a breeze. And, access to the integrated extended platform is convenient, safe and hassle-free. The swim platform is oversized to accommodate all water sports activities and includes built-in drink holders. A fiberglass storage compartment with non-skid lid, a two-inch fuel fill, a transom mount trim/tilt switch, a transom shower and optional stereo remote leave little more to ask for in such a well appointed cuddy.
