2008 Four Winns V318

The V318 fills the niche for those seeking a mid-sized cruiser. The deck style lines, curved windshield, triple port light windows, and standard radar arch complete the V318’s distinctive profile. The hinging fiberglass arch makes set-up, storage, transportation and maintenance super simple. A color-matched camper canvas system is included as standard equipment. Premium gel coat finish. A two-tiered welded stainless steel bow rail is combined with an intermediate lifeline system to provide security in the foredeck area. At the integrated swim platform, Four Winns includes blue courtesy lighting, and its signature angled, deep-reach ladder with wide step pads for the swimmer’s comfort. And there’s a hot/cold shower for a quick rinse or to remove sand and debris. The spacious swim platform can be transformed to a virtual recreation center with all the options available. Using a center rail mounting system, a table, grill, fishing rod holders and a tube rack can be quickly attached. Showcase patriotic spirit with the new flag pole and holder option. For an added luxurious touch, Flexiteek flooring can be selected for an easy-to-clean and slip-resistant swim platform surface. And in the evenings, the V318’s optional underwater lighting creates a beautiful atmosphere with large light fixtures mounted below the swim platform, filling the surrounding water with a luminous glow.

In the cockpit, the V318 seating includes a dual helm with flip-up bolsters, port lounge and U-shape stern seating with fill-in cushion.

An additional navigation upgrade is available with an E80 display. The updated dash includes a lighter gel coat color, plus a new charcoal finish as the backdrop for controls. Polished stainless steel bezels highlight a comprehensive series of Faria gauges, tachometer with hour meter, and a compass to guide the way.

When the dash is not in use, Four Winns provides a canvas helm cover. Trim tabs are included, plus windshield wipers at port and starboard are standard.
