Maxum 1800 SR: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Maxim 1800 SR3 is a completely redesigned runabout that emphasizes an open cockpit layout, ideal for accommodating friends and family. It features an extended swim platform aft, enhancing the space available for water sports activities. This model represents Maxim's first fully featured runabout, offering a variety of engine options, seating configurations, and accessories such as full canvas, carpet runners, and built-in liners to meet diverse boating needs.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
The 1800 SR3 showcases a spacious and functional exterior design. The bow area provides seating for three, equipped with well-placed handrails for safety and convenient cup holders on both sides. Underneath the port and starboard seats, ample storage is available for life jackets and other gear. The anchor locker is easily accessible, and all hardware, including deck cleats, is constructed from stainless steel. The cleats are designed to pop up when needed and remain flush when not in use. A large wrap-around windshield offers excellent protection from the elements without obstructing the view, and its center section opens to allow easy passage forward. The extended swim platform adds two feet to the boat’s overall length, incorporating a solid ski hook and a stowaway ladder for effortless water access. Additionally, a storage locker at the stern provides a convenient place to stow skis and boards, avoiding clutter in the cockpit.
Cockpit and Helm
The helm area is thoughtfully arranged with analog instrumentation including a fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, speedometer, tachometer, and trim gauge, alongside system switches. The padded steering wheel is adjustable with tilt functionality to suit the driver’s preference, and engine controls incorporate built-in tilt and trim features. Seating at the helm is comfortable with ample legroom, and the port side offers a dedicated space for a co-pilot to relax. Between the two seats, a large storage locker integrated into the fiberglass liner provides room for water toys and other essentials. The 1800 SR3 is available with three seating arrangements; the tested model features a sport seating layout with an aft bench seat and a large sun pad behind it, ideal for lounging. The sun pad lifts to reveal the engine compartment.
Power and Performance
Our test boat was equipped with a 220 horsepower MerCruiser 4.3-liter engine, providing ample power and easy access to critical components for maintenance. The hull design includes hard chines for agile turning and a 17-degree dead rise that contributes to smooth performance. On the water, the 1800 SR3 demonstrated impressive capabilities, reaching a top speed of 46 miles per hour at 5,000 RPM. The boat handled well through turns and cruised efficiently at 3,500 RPM, achieving 31.5 miles per hour and a range of approximately 119 miles. Water sports enthusiasts will appreciate the quick acceleration, with a zero to 30 miles per hour time of 6.8 seconds and a planing time of just 3.9 seconds.
Dimensions and Practicality
Measuring 20 feet, one inch in length with a beam of seven feet, seven inches, the Maxim 1800 SR3 is compact and manageable, making trailering straightforward. The combination of stylish lines and functional design elements ensures that the boat is both attractive and practical for a variety of boating activities.
Conclusion
With its open cockpit, versatile seating options, extended swim platform, and strong performance, the Maxim 1800 SR3 offers a well-rounded package for boaters seeking a quality runabout.
