bowrider

Bow-seating speedboat

A bowrider is a type of motorboat with an open seating area in the bow, ahead of the helm.

The design accommodates more passengers than traditional boats with enclosed foredecks, making bowriders popular for recreational boating, water sports, and day cruising: We took the bowrider out for a spin around the lake.
