Boat length now includes swim platform...
Jazzman brings up a key point. Boat length used to be water-line only. So, if you bought a 25 foot boat with a swim platform, you had 25 feet of boat and maybe another 2 feet of swim platform, for 27 feet overall. But, that boat would have been marketed as a 25 footer. In today's market, that model is marketed as a 27 footer, when it is really only 25 feet of water-line.
Just something to keep in mind when shopping...
