Doral 245 Sunquest: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The 245 Sunquest from Doral represents the pinnacle of their bow rider lineup, offering a blend of style, performance, and thoughtful features. As the largest open bow design in Doral's range, this model maintains the sporty handling characteristics of its smaller counterparts while providing ample space and comfort for a day on the water.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
Measuring 25 feet 6 inches in length overall with a beam of 8 feet 6 inches, the 245 Sunquest features an 18-degree dead rise and a sharp bow entry that ensures a dry and comfortable ride. The hull is protected by an optional bow scuff plate, and docking lights enhance visibility during approach maneuvers. The boat offers four exterior color options and three canvas colors, allowing owners to personalize their vessel. The bow area includes two bench seats with lounger backs, cup holders, and integrated speakers, creating a welcoming space for guests. Courtesy lights are strategically placed to improve safety when moving around the deck in low light conditions.
Cockpit and Helm Features
The cockpit is designed with functionality and entertainment in mind, featuring a companion seat, a wraparound bench, and a helm bucket seat. Storage is abundant beneath the seating, including a center section that flips over to provide easy access to the front of the engine. The companion pod is equipped with an optional sink, a glove box with a 12-volt DC socket for charging devices, cup holders, and an AM/FM-CD stereo system. The helm is accented with classy wood trim extending to the tray and stainless steel cup holders. Controls include lighted knobs for powered features, Varia gauges, burl wood accents, and optional digital depth gauge and compass. The bucket seats offer flip-up bolsters, swivel, and slide adjustments for enhanced comfort and control.
Interior Living Spaces and Amenities
A standout feature of the 245 Sunquest is its full beam-width changing room, which enhances privacy and convenience. This area includes optional amenities such as a 12-volt refrigerator, reading lights, storage compartments, and bench seating. Opposite the changing room is a lighted locker and a covered glove box housing an optional power amplifier, along with additional bench seating and storage. Toward the bow, a storage drawer is available, and under the cockpit lies a pull-out ceramic toilet, adding to the boat's practicality for extended outings.
Stern and Swim Platform
The stern is dominated by a large, heavily pleated sun pad that offers comfortable lounging space. Two stainless steel cup holders are conveniently positioned for refreshments. Lifting the sun pad reveals a polished stainless steel backing that reflects the engine below, with ample storage space on either side. The optional T-swim platform includes a single step leading to a walk-through at the sun pad, a grab bar for safe re-boarding, and a covered three-step telescoping ladder. The deluxe package further enhances the transom with an optional stereo remote and tilt switch.
Power and Performance
Weighing 4,580 pounds and carrying 54 gallons of fuel, the 245 Sunquest is designed for a full day on the water. It draws 19 inches of water with the drive up and 34 inches with the drive down. On inland lakes, the boat demonstrated precise handling, executing tight turns with minimal speed loss or cavitation. It also managed steady one-foot chop conditions comfortably, showcasing its ability to handle rougher water with confidence.
Conclusion
The 245 Sunquest stands out as Doral's most feature-rich and performance-oriented bow rider. Its combination of stylish design, practical amenities, and reliable handling make it an excellent choice for those seeking a versatile and comfortable day boat. Whether entertaining guests or enjoying a spirited cruise, the 245 Sunquest delivers a compelling package at the top of Doral's open bow offerings.
