Four Winns HORIZON 180

The brand-new Four Winns 180 Horizon is the company's smallest model, making it a significant boat for the company. A good entry-level boat is one of the most effective ways for a boat builder to gain a long-term customers. If a boater spends the $17,000 to $20,000 on the 180 Horizon and is completely satisfied, he or she will most likely put Four Winns at the top of their list when it comes time to shop for a larger boat, and Four Winns has many larger possibilities. So you can see how critical it is for Four Winns to get the 180 just right.

We observed right away that the 180 has several interesting seating options to offer boaters. A set of bucket seats (bucket seats with bolsters are optional for $585) and jump seats are standard in the back. The jump seats can be used as seating or can be raised to provide a full-beam sunpad over the transom. The cushioned jump seats can also be flipped over to create nonskid steps to help you cross the transom.


The Sunsport layout is the alternative seating option, and it costs $269 more. A full-width rear bench seat and sunpad are included in the Sunsport layout. Under the bench seat is storage, and the sunpad lifts to provide access to the engine and more storage.
A pleasant bow seating space with storage behind the chairs is included in both layouts. Glassed-in compartments with drains are located beneath the chairs and can be used as refrigerators, dry storage, or anything.

The 180's main storage is a big centerline ski locker with a wide hatch that is supported by hydraulics. It has lots of space for skis, wakeboards, and other watercraft.

It's crucial to have enough storage for these devices because a novice boat like this will almost certainly be utilized for watersports as much as anything else. The integrated full-beam swim platform will appeal to all your watersports enthusiasts, and Four Winns took the time to design a foldable ladder with extra-wide steps, which makes a notable difference.
