Fished out of an 24LTS Saturday and a BX 24 Sunday. Both awesome boats, but I have to admit the BX rode better (sorry Bob).

Ok.....1 vote for a boat not mentioned. Cape Bay!! Reviews compare them to the yellowfin for a fraction of the cost.

I think maybe you were just in better shape to ride on Sunday... Lol

If you want to ride in a triton I'm sure we can set up a time. I think lake area marine sells them and I know LMC in Houston does

I went look at frontiers yesterday and love them. Now the rationalization faze begins.

i have been looking at the other brands mentioned in this thread and none of them have the "Carilina Flare" style hull like the SH or the Sportsman. Seems they would not be as dry of a ride and slightly less deck space. Am I correct in this?

Check out the purebay2400. I just got into one from a triton 240lts and im very impressed.

If you like carolina flare check out the BlackJack 224. The triton is a very dry riding boat unless you are running cross chop in a 10-15 mph wind then you will get a little spray every once in a while, but that will happen in almost any boat. I can fish two people on my front deck fine

Take a look at the Avengers. Venice marina will be glad to give you a ride in them. I run a 2004 23 footer. The hull design makes the ride smooth and dry. Going from offshore cat to inshore light bay boat I had to learn how to drive it. Things like jackplate, trim tabs, and motor trim etc. The Avenger is sweet.

I was also looking at the Shearwater, after riding in it, then the sportsman 247 , I bought the 247. Only 5 miles per hour slower , but the ride is great and there is plenty of room to fish , even with the t-top.

I was in the same spot as you. I was set on a frontier and then I took my wife to look at them. Best move ever. We ordered a blackjack that day.
