2025 Sylvan M Series M3 DLZ DC Bar

Barstools, a breeze, and your favourite beverage. 

By: Gordon Cruise McBride

For many boaters, there are more important things than fishing at 5 a.m. The 2025 Sylvan M Series M3 DLZ DC Bar pontoon series is just what the doctor ordered for water enthusiasts who want to entertain in comfort. With a length of 25 feet 8 inches and a beam of 102 inches, this model comfortably accommodates up to 14 passengers, making it ideal for both entertaining and relaxation. 

A standout feature of the M3 DLZ DC Bar is its convertible rear bar, which effortlessly transforms from a stylish four-person bar into a spacious rear-facing lounge. Hosting a sunset cocktail hour or providing a comfortable space for sunbathing and conversation is a decision for your guests to make.

Sylvan has prioritized quality and comfort in the M3 DLZ DC Bar’s construction. They partnered with Guide Engineering to introduce three FANUC ARC Mate 120iD robots to quickly weld pontoons in just 10–12 minutes each. In addition, the automation meets Smoker Craft’s quality and consistency standards. And Cool Touch vinyl upholstery ensures seating remains comfortable even on the hottest days, while the intricate stitching pattern adds a touch of elegance. The inclusion of backlit emblems on the side panels and bow gate enhances the boat’s aesthetic appeal, especially during evening cruises. The SeaStar™ power assist steering system provides effortless manoeuvrability, allowing for precise control in various water conditions.  

The helm is designed with both functionality and style in mind. A raised platform offers the pilot a clear 360-degree view, while the full-fibreglass console houses a Simrad NSX® 12” ultra-wide multifunction display integrated with the engine. Additional features include a Gucci—Rondinella steering wheel, lighted push-button accessory switches and an integrated windshield.

Entertainment is a clear focus on the M3 DLZ DC Bar. The Premium Sound Package includes six JL speakers, a JL subwoofer, and an eight-channel amplifier, delivering high-fidelity audio throughout the vessel. Mood lighting, lighted cupholders, and underwater lighting create an inviting atmosphere for evening gatherings. The extended rear deck provides ample space for lounging or accessing the water, while the stainless-steel telescoping ladder ensures easy reboarding. And don’t forget the optional chilled cupholder at the helm, for cool drinks that stay cool under the summer sky. When the party’s over, a Trailmaster T2450BR trailer allows you to move the boat to your next favourite location in safety.
