Cougar Sport Racer

In a dynamic blend of racer and family sports boat, Cougar have kept true to the original concept of a dual-purpose boat but perhaps with racing as her main aim. The Sport Racer is equally at home at the front of the fleet at over 70mph* as she is ferrying the family to an afternoon's waterskiing and relaxation. The 27' deep V hull with twin steps offers a superb smooth ride, sea keeping and directional stability. The boat is specified so as to be ready to race, whilst providing seating for up to 4 with the rear cowling removed.
