Walkthrough TheQueenship “BONKERS” can be easily boarded via her oversized swim platform. Not many boats feature a platform this large. This platform is the perfect launching port for a whole host of watersports activities. Diving, snorkeling, paddle boarding, you name it and BONKERS can accommodate. Standing on the platform you have a watertight door center line that will lead below to crew accommodations and engine room. She features a Euro style transom with dual stairwells and safety gates on either side leading up to the aft deck.
The expansive aft deck looks gorgeous with a new teak deck added in 2018. She features split forward-facing seating with a Corian tabletop. From here you can access the interior through two sliding panoramic doors, take the starboard side ladder up the fly bridge or transit the bow by her modified walk around side decks. Her functionality is perfect as both a couple’s cruiser and a crewed vessel. Additional aft deck highlights include….

The bridge is well out to be functional and social. The aft half of the bridge with her 13.5” Novurania on board is utilitarian in nature. There is a hydraulic davit for launch and retrieval. With the tender down this aft bridge area could be transformed into additional social seating or even sun space. The fwd. half of the bridge has a center walkway flanked by two storage cabinets.
