Default Any Difference At All

Is there a price difference in a cuddy as opposed to a bow rider ? Or is this just a preference thing ? I've had my davanti for two months and I love it, but I've been looking for a 24ft talari cuddy... Interesting enough you find a lot more bow riders out there, at near the same price as a cuddy... I just found that odd.

    As for a price difference, I'd say not much. However, I do believe it would cost the manufacturer a bit more for materials with a cuddy. The difference is demand. There's a higher demand for bow riders than cuddies in that size, and the demand dictates the prices.

    I noticed the same thing when I first got interested in cuddy cabins. I was pleasantly surprised. There are none to even be found in my immediate area though.

    I agree, and finding a good one is an interesting task.. I had my boat in the shop last week and the guy at the counter was shocked that I even wanted a cuddy.. When I told him I had a 10 and 12 year old who loved the lake but not when it was raining, I think he kind of understood.. I think maybe as they get older they would have liked a bow rider more... But thats why I have jet skis ....
