Runabout boats are small motorboats carrying 4 to 8 people, and move very swiftly on water. They can be used for racing, for fishing or even for water skiing as they are very athletic in their movement. Bow rider, center console, cuddy and walkaround fall under this category only. Also closed bow runabouts are as smooth as they are swift to drive. They can be used to participate in almost all kinds of water sports.
