What owners & reviewers say
Based on 8 reviews from across the web
The L3 DLZ Platinum draws consistent praise for its versatile rear layout, which converts between a bar with four stools, a rear-facing lounger, and a full sunpad in under a minute. That transforming stern earned an NMMA Innovation Award, and both expert reviewers and owners agree it genuinely changes how you use the boat on the water. The rest of the package holds up well too: soft-touch upholstery with high-back seating throughout, a well-appointed helm wrapped in soft-touch vinyl, and thoughtful storage throughout the boat.
Performance with the Yamaha 250 is a strong point. Reviewers found this platform reaches comfortable cruising speeds without straining the engine, and when equipped with the tri-toon performance package, handling through corners is smooth and predictable. At easy cruising speeds, cabin noise stays low enough for normal conversation.
Our owners tell us the seating capacity and open layout make a real difference for families and larger groups. A few minor fit-and-finish items, such as occasional loose fasteners, can come up early in ownership, but these are easily addressed. The overall build quality, particularly the welds and structural finish, compares favorably to other brands in this class.
