What Makes A Dual Console Boat the Right Choice?
A dual console splits the helm and passenger seating into two consoles with a walk-through windshield between them, combining the wind and spray protection of a center console with the open bow seating and social layout of a bowrider.
Whether you want a family-friendly dual console for cruising and watersports, or a fishier model with livewells and rod storage for weekend trips offshore, talking it through with Capt. Bob narrows the search fast — no filters, no guesswork, just a real conversation about how you'll use it.
Cruising Savannah's Rivers Into the Golden Isles
The Savannah River and the ICW give local boaters a classic Lowcountry cruising route, with Georgia's Golden Isles and their protected marsh anchorages within easy range to the south.
A dual console boat — twin windshields and family-friendly seating that split the difference between a cruiser's comfort and a runabout's versatility — is built for exactly this kind of Lowcountry coastal cruising. Capt. Bob can help sort out what actually fits how you plan to cruise.
Dual Console Boat FAQ
What makes a dual console boat different from a bowrider?
A dual console has two separate consoles — port and starboard — with a walk-through windshield between them leading to bow seating, instead of one open bow area. That layout gives passengers wind and spray protection up front while keeping the fishier features boaters want, like higher gunwales and livewells.
Dual console or bowrider — what's the difference?
A dual console typically has a beefier build, higher freeboard, and more fishing-oriented features like livewells and rod holders, making it a good middle ground between a bowrider and a center console. A bowrider is usually lighter, more affordable, and better suited to swimming, tubing, and casual day trips.
How much does a dual console boat cost?
Dual console prices generally start in the mid five figures for a smaller 20-foot model and can run well into six figures for a larger, fully rigged boat with twin outboards and premium electronics.
