Southwind Deck Boats; cover, cost and conditions

SouthWind Deck Boats are built in Cairo, Georgia, in the American South. The brand belongs to the Seminole Marine Group, a family business that had spent more than 25 years building saltwater boats under the Sailfish name before SouthWind arrived. By the group's own account, many components and building procedures were carried over from Sailfish so that the deck boats would stand up to salt water as well. A deck boat is an open powerboat with a wide deck carried right forward to the bow and plenty of seating. The Sport Deck series, as the maker describes it, joins the room of a deck boat with the steering and handling of a runabout, so fishing, waterskiing and an afternoon cruise can share one boat and one day.

Our model records list five designs, all from the Sport Deck series and all classed as motorboats. Each is recorded from 2019 and every one reaches the most recent build years. The shortest is the Southwind 212 Sport Deck at 6.18 metres, followed by the SouthWind 200 Sport Deck at 6.4 metres, so the model number does not follow length here. Above them sit the SouthWind 2200 Sport Deck at 7.08 metres, the SouthWind 2400 Sport Deck at 7.92 metres and, as the largest, the SouthWind 2600 Sport Deck at 8.38 metres. Four of the five stay under eight metres.

Deck boats work hard on busy summer days, and it shows in the details. Vinyl upholstery and carpet suffer from sun and standing water, so a fitted canvas and good drainage pay off. After salt water, flush the engine and rinse the hull, rails and trailer. On a used boat, check the floor for soft spots, look at the seat bases and hinges, read the engine service record and test every pump and switch. Since these boats so often live on a trailer, the trailer deserves its own inspection: bearings, brakes, lights and the rollers or bunks that carry the hull. A clean, dry bilge is a good sign that the boat has been looked after.
