Starting with the conversion lounge, the stern seating area behind the dual captain chairs provides multiple ways to use this space, including a bench seat, rear-facing loungers, or it can even lay completely flat as an ultimate sunpad. We’re guessing the rear-facing loungers will be the most popular way to configure it, but the two chaise lounges in the bow is another area your passengers will seek out. The premium furniture is included as one of the many standard features, and we especially like the quilted accents in the vinyl for a high-end look.

At the elevated helm, the clean-looking dash is centered on a Simrad touchscreen, which is set up with Mercury’s Smart Craft Connect system. This easy-to-use display provides full engine and system vitals, chart plotting, depth, as well as controls to the RGB lighting. Also at the helm is access to the KICKER sound system that includes six total speakers. And down below there is even a wireless charging pad for the captain.

Speaking of staying connected, your passengers will appreciate the five total USB/USB-C combo charge ports that are located in the recessed seating locations. It’s a modern touch that we’re seeing more and more of as layouts evolve. A great addition to the RS 25 Dual Helm Conversion Lounge, is the optional Privacy Cover, located in the bow chaise. This optional feature can be nice to have, especially for those with younger children. Plus, it’s the ultimate space-saver that disappears when not needed.

Other highlights include an in-floor ski locker, a large ski/tow bar with safety chains, and an elegant wakeboard tower that completely ties in the sporty vibe.

Up top there is 19 feet of usable deck space inside the bow and stern gates on this 26-footer. The rail height, equipped with Quietride Fencing varies from 21 inches tall in the stern to 29 inches for the majority of the layout.
