Launched from Temple Bar Marina, the 25' SunChaser Tritoon is a wide, stable platform built for a full day on the water: fishing, towing tubes, and drifting onto beaches. With seating for up to 12, a 150HP outboard, a tow bar, swim ladder and a built-in stereo, the boat is outfitted for groups looking to work the coves and sand bars around Willow Beach and nearby shoreline.

THE BOAT

Room for a Dozen and the Kit to Match

The 25' SunChaser Tritoon carries up to 12 passengers and a maximum gear/person weight of 1,800 lbs, powered by a 150HP outboard. Onboard amenities include a tow bar for tubing, a stereo system, and a swim ladder; standard safety gear is supplied with every vessel.

THE PLAY

Fishing, Watersports and Beach Stops

Designed for a smooth ride, the tritoon is marketed for fishing, watersports and beach activities — versatile enough to run wake, tow riders, or anchor in a quiet cove for a shoreline lunch.

THE LOGISTICS

Ready-to-Go with Clear Rules

Rentals come outfitted with life jackets, anchor, fire extinguisher, paddle, throwable PFD, safety flag and VHF radio; operators must meet age and ID requirements and renters are responsible for fuel and oil consumption.

What the day feels like

What a Day Aboard Feels Like

A morning check-in at the marina, a safety briefing or video if required, then a roomy tritoon carries your party out into the water — fishing lines out one moment, a tow rope clipped in the next, and an afternoon run to a sandbar for swimming. The 150HP outboard gives enough push for watersports while the boat’s layout keeps groups comfortable during long days on the lake.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this boat is right for — and who should look elsewhere.

1
Large Groups & PartiesIdeal: seating for up to 12 people makes the tritoon well suited to families or groups seeking a shared day on the water; note that pets and small children count toward the passenger total.
2
Families with ChildrenGood match if you travel with kids — life jackets are provided and children 13 and under are required by law to wear a PFD while on the water; an adult renter/operator must be 21 or older and carry valid ID.
3
Watersports EnthusiastsAppropriate for towing and tubing thanks to a tow bar and a 150HP engine, though local seasonal horsepower restrictions may limit northbound operations at certain times of year.
4
Anglers & Day CruisersWell suited for shore fishing and cruising sheltered waters; keep in mind fuel is the renter’s responsibility and the vessel has a 40-gallon fuel tank.
