Overview

Experience lake days the way they should be experienced! The 2025 TAHOE® 185 S makes the most of your time on the water.

The 185 S is an affordably luxurious runabout boat with room for up to 8 passengers. Kick back and relax in the front deck’s dual seats, the swiveling driver and passenger bucket seats, or the aft bench seat. An in-floor compartment holds your wakeboard or skis. You'll find extra storage under this sport boat's seat cushions. Take hold of the SeaStar® hydraulic steering wheel and feel the engineering performance of the POWERGLIDE® hull design with HYDROSTEP strakes.

Set your boat up for watersports with the ski-tow pylon receptacle. Between skiing runs, relax on the aft full-width cushioned sundeck or the port and starboard swim platforms. After you practice your cannonballs, use the fold-down boarding ladder to easily reboard. A 10-gal. aerated livewell keeps you prepared to fish when the biting's good. When the bites slow, crank up the 4-speaker Jenson® stereo with Bluetooth® compatibility.

The 2025 TAHOE® 185 S comes standard with a 115hp Mercury® EXLPT Pro XS® FourStroke outboard motor and has a recommended maximum 150hp rating. This model is packaged with a trailer.
