Speed Boats
A speed boat is generally a boat that has been designed for the purpose of speed, excitement & exhillaration. Speed boats are very sleek in design so they can cut through the water quickly and have larger engines than other boats of their size. Some speed boat brands available in Australia include Pegiva, Chris Craft, Sea Doo Jet Boats and Baja.
Sports Boats
A sports boat can also go fast but that is not its main purpose. Sports boats are great 'all rounders' and can be used for a variety of boating activities including towing, sking, cruising, day trips, fishing and family recreation. A sport boat is, as the name suggests, a more sporty looking boat - much like sports cars. Good examples of new sport boat brands are Bavaria, Cobalt, Mustang, Regal, Sea Ray and Sting Ray.
