Tahoe 700: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Tahoe 700 is a 21-foot family bow rider designed primarily for water sports enthusiasts. It replaces the longstanding Tahoe Q7 model, offering a slightly longer hull by six inches and repositioning the engine compartment further aft to enhance the bow seating area. This model aims to provide a secure and comfortable experience for families engaging in various water activities.

Exterior Design and Bow Features

The bow of the Tahoe 700 is configured for forward-facing travel, featuring backrests on the front of the consoles, padded in-wheels, and grab rails for added security. The outboard lounges measure four feet in length and one foot five inches in width, complemented by cupholders and stereo speakers both fore and aft. To increase safety, the cockpit depth forward has been increased to two feet nine inches, with a bow freeboard of three feet four inches. Underneath the hinged outboard bottom cushions are molded lockers with drainage channels to prevent rainwater accumulation. The backrests on each console are also hinged, providing access to the amplifier for the optional stereo upgrade and the helm ringing starter. The forward-most bow cushion can be removed easily to allow stepping up to the bow, where dedicated anchor and rope storage is located beneath. While the boat includes pull-up cleats on each side aft for dock lines, the reviewer noted the absence of a centerline cleat on the foredeck for securing the anchor rope. The walkthrough windshield has a 1 foot 9 inch wide passageway with a powder-coated aluminum frame.

Cockpit and Seating Arrangement

The cockpit features two bucket seats forward and an L-shaped lounge aft. Both bucket seats have two-tone upholstery with accent piping, ventilated backrests, side notches for ease of turning, and fold-up bolsters. Ergonomically, the seats slide, and the captain benefits from a padded gunwale and adjustable tilt steering wheel, providing excellent visibility. The switch panel includes a master power switch and stereo remote control, with an optional digital throttle and shift system featuring a SmartKraft engine monitoring screen. Storage is well thought out, with a glove box containing a net, power plug, and USB port, as well as an open shelf and cell phone holder. Between the bucket seats, a locking hatch opens to a ski and board locker measuring six feet by two feet with a 1 foot 5 inch opening, equipped with a paddle rack and a protective rubber mat. The port bucket seat can swivel to face aft, creating a comfortable spot for observing water sports. The port side lounge lifts on a gas strut to reveal a storage compartment lined with a rubber mat, and a water sports tow rope rack is integrated nearby. The aft bench seat lifts to access the cooler, which supports the seat bottom for easy use. An inspection hatch in the deck provides access to fuel tank fittings.

Sun Lounge, Storage, and Engine Access

Above the aft bench seat, the sun lounge spans 6 feet 10 inches and can be configured into a chaise lounge with multiple adjustable backrest positions. Cushions on the starboard side fold up to create a clear walkway from the cockpit to the stern. A locking, drained storage compartment is located in this passageway. Engine compartment access is facilitated by two easily released latches on the bench seat backrest, revealing a starboard side housing for the battery and trim pump, with open space and racks for the stern light and cockpit cover posts on the port side. The extended swim platform measures 6 feet 10 inches across and 2 feet 10 inches deep, with an optional 1 foot 6 inch extension covered in synthetic teak flooring. This platform extends well beyond the drive and propeller for enhanced safety and includes a four-step ladder and a transom-mounted stereo remote as part of the optional upgrade.

Power and Performance

The test boat was equipped with a 300 horsepower MerCruiser MX6.2L 300 ECT engine paired with a Bravo 1 drive and a 14 1/4 by 18 inertia stainless steel propeller. With 39 gallons of fuel and test equipment aboard, the boat weighed approximately 4,142 pounds. The hull features a Power Glide bottom with six full-length strakes and more aggressively turned-down chines compared to competitors, a sharp bow entry, and a 20-degree dead rise at the transom. These design elements contributed to a quick planing time of 3.2 seconds and acceleration to 20 mph in 4.9 seconds and 30 mph in 7 seconds. Under hard acceleration, the bow rose to 20 degrees but quickly settled with power application, maintaining forward visibility. The top speed reached 55.7 mph at 5,350 rpm. The most efficient cruise was at 3,000 rpm, achieving 29 mph with a fuel burn of 6.8 gallons per hour, equating to 4.3 miles per gallon and a range of 161 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve. Maneuverability was notably smooth, with confident handling during fully locked turns at speeds above 40 mph and enjoyable slalom passes. The boat also felt solid when crossing wakes.

Trailer and Overall Assessment

The Tahoe 700 is delivered on a tandem axle trailer featuring brakes on one axle and a frame and fenders treated with GalvaShield protective coating. This turnkey package allows owners to easily tow the boat to their preferred water destination. Overall, the Tahoe 700 offers a well-equipped, thoughtfully designed platform that caters to active families seeking a versatile and high-performance water sports boat.
