1996 Crownline 182 BR (Bowrider) Dealer Overview "Step into a legacy of premium family runabouts with the 1996 Crownline 182 BR . During the height of the 1990s fiberglass sportboat boom, Crownline carved out an enviable reputation for delivering luxury-tier amenities, thick hand-laid fiberglass construction, and eye-catching gelcoat designs—all at a price point that offered incredible value compared to boutique builders. The 182 Bowrider stands as a prime example of why Crownline became a household name on lakes across the country. Built on an aggressive, continuous-V hull profile, this 18-foot athlete is engineered to pop up on plane quickly and slice through choppy inland lake water with a remarkably dry, stable ride. Typically paired with rock-solid, easy-to-service MerCruiser or Volvo Penta sterndrive powerplants (ranging from efficient 4.3L V6s to muscular 5.0L V8s), the 182 BR delivers effortless towing power for tubers and skiers, sports-car agility, and a thrilling top-end finish. For families seeking a timeless, beautifully sculpted classic runabout that doesn't break the bank, this Crownline package is a proven winner." Key Layout & Retro Comfort Features Signature Curved Windshield: Features an automotive-style, walkthrough aluminum windshield frame that beautifully complements the boat's fluid, sculpted fiberglass exterior profile.
