2009 Stingray 225 LR

Both 225 versions (225LR and 225CR) inherit the next generation hull, which features unique contours to the running surface that extend beneath both sides of the integrated swim platform, creating three-point water contact for an extremely stable ride. It allows the boat to get out of the hole and on plane quicker for faster speeds and a freer riding hull. A three-dimensional, domed hull graphic, located in the style line amidships, adds sizzle and class to the already "go fast" look. And, if it's a deep boat with ample freeboard for "big" water that interests you, the 225 is just the ticket. At 22' 11" and a beam of 100", this is one deep and wide boat that offers safety and performance, all in the comfort of a spacious cockpit.

An overhead view, beginning at the transom, reveals an integrated swim platform that is the perfect size for initiating water sports or for on-water entertainment. Gain cockpit access via our popular walk-thru companionway and bench seat step found on our larger boats. It provides ease of entry and exit and maintains the integrity of a full transom without sacrificing seating. When not in use as a walk-thru, a custom filler cushion transitions this feature into a full sundeck.

Inside the cockpit, you will be surrounded by a U-shaped (LR) seating configuration that provides maximum seating capacity for your "brood" and any friends they may bring along. And, if it's storage you need, you will find cavernous seat bases ideal for most any item you bring onboard. We have designed a storage place for virtually everything. A rectangular, fiberglass table insert that mounts fore or aft is neatly "battened" down and stowed under the rear sundeck. A full fiberglass liner with molded-in seat bases allows for ease of maintenance and can be equipped with optional snap-in carpet for more comfort or to enhance the look.

"Soft touch" vinyl prows top off two-level fiberglass dash pods. A full complement of gauges is used to monitor onboard operations. The center gauge is actually four gauges in one monitoring fuel level, engine temperature, oil pressure, and volts. The second tier houses the remote stereo control to the left of the steering wheel and rocker panel switches to the right. On the passenger side is a built-in stereo compartment housed in a locking glove box. Below is a great "catch-all" for sunglasses, magazines, sun tan lotions, etc. These dashes cap off under-helm storage on both passenger and driver sides. Access is easy through starboard doors accented with stainless steel hinges and latch. Notice the twin recessed speakers and stainless steel cup holders in the cockpit.

In the bow, you will find Stingray's signature curved bow seats. This increases the walkway area and provides added legroom. Once again, a set of speakers will greet you for maximum entertainment value, as well as a built-in cooler with overboard drain. Just forward of the cooler, on deck, is an anchor locker with stainless steel hinges and latch. A quick walk-around of the top deck reveals five stainless steel pop-up cleats—one forward, two amidships, and two strategically located aft.
