I know I was just messin...the MRGO gets crazy rollers in it...I was in a 18 foot rolled gunnel nitro bay boat once in huge rollers and the walls were buckling and shaking and ****... Didn't help my big *** was in it but I was thankful to make it back that day.

Also back to subject nautical star is economical but not a triton...if u wanna look at something a lil bit cheaper than triton but I think actually think rides as good is the 23 hydra sports... It's a heavy boat like the triton with a great ride.

funny you two think im a kid. ask your lover w why he has a kid on his ignore list? :rotfl: im not trying to start crap like he does. when people who have no idea about boats and water read this and think they can run 5 footers in a 20foot bay boat then they go out and capsize and go missing thats the problem. yeah you can take any boat offshore as long as its calm and you know the weather. but a lot of people just dont know and dont have the experience of being in a bad situation.

Chub, you rode in a White Water?

And a haynie z21

White Water was made here in Bogalusa by Louisiana Fiberglass. As many of those boats as they were selling....I was shocked when they "went under".

Yea, great riding boat. I just can't understand why guys on this forum go so crazy over a haynie after riding in one. It's a nice boat. But it's a simple concept. Not much technology involved. Horsepower to weight ratio. Havnie is a lightweight, low freeboard, single wall roll gunnel, low deadrise, 21ft boat that will take a 225hp outboard. It is not incredible for it to go 68mph. I just don't get it.

Guys

Blackjack???? Not even close to Triton!!! Narrow little transom! 24 LTS is the only thing if you're fishing the coast. On a good day can go out 50 miles also.

Whitewater boats went out of business because of the owner also owned Country Stop Marine in Mandeville that defaulted. Whitewater boats had a cult follwing like Haynie, for many of the same reasons. The Whitewater bay boat was made more for rought water than the Haynie a lot drier and softer ride, but does draft more water.

This is not exactly true. I know these people very well. Only speculation.

I've ridden or driven in 21-24 foot ranger, whaler, triton, pathfinder, blackjack, champion, yellowfin, kenner, nautic star, blue wave, haynie, and several others.
really the haynie is second to only the YF imo

i'd like to see all of them race across the gulf and see which one falls apart first

I'd put my 24 lake&bay against all of them

you never rode in one to know.........Just got my out of the shop last week and the owner of the shop said...The Hayine is the only boat that he has never had one person complain about or say one thing bad.... And since Chris Left Sulfur he is getting a lot of them in.

When you can drive 55mph across two and three foot chop and not get wet...You will talk...

It depends on the direction of the chop

And how may 5lb trout u got n the box......
100 x 5...... Dats gonna lean any bote to a side......

Not really....unless the winds are over 20mph the only water u will get is spray off which is minimal

Bottom line ...... This guy was Askin bout triton vs Nauticstar.....
How do we always get off on other boats, when the original post was not asking about other boats.
Mods...... Y'all need to keep threads in chk.... When someone comes on here to get good info b4 making a purchase , they deserve to get quality info.... Not b made fun of, mocked & have their question trashed.... Along with a hijacked thread bc a few people need to gain more damn salty cash.
It's getting outta control. As mods y'all need to control the direction of posts like this, bc if it keeps up I see less and less people asking questions and seeking out info on here.

I have ridden in one and it is a good ride for what it is, a low freeboard bay boat, but does not compare to the ride of a triton or blackjack.

Back to the orginal question, I have driven both boats and the Triton wins in all categorys except for price. Personally I think there are better boats out there for the money but if money is not part of your thought process and your two choices are Triton or NS then buy the Triton. You will get a drier ride and a more stable boat. Neither boat is fast and they tend to draft more than several other options that are out there.

Having owned both, have to say the Triton, hands down. IMO the Nautic Star isn't even in the same league. Plus the Triton will hold its value better.

Whatever route you go power up as much as possible and get trim tabs. My first boat was an 18ft Nautic Star with a 90yammahamma and I felt like I could get out and run faster in certain conditions. As others have mentioned both boats are slow, but that is a relative term.

While you're looking, check out ProLine and Sea Hunt. I believe ProLine is now owned by Triton and would be something worth taking a glance at before pulling the trigger.

U should see the price of the triton I told him about.... Unreal.

I heard there are some great deals over in Fla. Here in Texas everything is still expensive. I bought a new car on Friday, only got $1,500 off of the sticker and I worked with four different dealers to get that.

There I go, getting off subject again....

I dosen't cost much to have the boat shipped over here so that is what I would do. I bought a boat in Alabama a couple of years ago and paid the guy $400 to meet me in Baton Rouge. I saved 2k on the boat so at the time I thought the savings were worth it. With the prices we have seen in Fla I bet it would be worth it to have them meet him somewhere or ship it.

What you are saying about your boat is just a lie, the guys at Regulator and Contender can not say this about any of there Offshore boats (55 mph two and three foot chop) Tell me why the guys at Haynie said this was not true.

LMAO....Bring ur Azz down to Big Lake....Ill show you.....and you did not talk to anyone a Hayine....If you did whats his name...So I can Call him right now and ask if he said that????


LOSER

Do you own a boat???? Crack Kills U know...Your right a Haynie dont compare...Its way better.... YTD there is about 12 BlackJack owners who traded in for a Hayine and I know a Trition owner on this site who is about to dump his boat for a Haynie :D:D


Try again....

No boat builder in the world would claim a 21 foot bay boat could take 2 to 3 footers at 55 mph, this is not knock on your little wooden boat no 21 foot bay boat is design for 2 to 3 at 55 mph. You would think by know you wood know this, my friend you are the loser.

Most people don't realize Theres a big difference in how a boat rides and how a boat fishes. It's proven that some boats will catch more fish than others due to being quiet such as wave slapping the sides. Haynie is one of the few that actually does both and that is why so many of the guides started trading there more expensive boats in for haynies.

It all depends where you fish. 2-3 ft in big lake does not compare to 2-3 ft on lake p.

Which weighs more?

100 lbs of lead?

or

100 lbs of cotton?



Nothing personal just found that funny carry on:*****:

Where did a Hayine guy say this.....I said my boat would cut 2 to 3 foot chop doing 55mph....Did it all last week in 30mph...

Where did I say the boat builder said this:confused::confused:

U see Butter....Thats how you spot a Pilgrim.....Right there......There 2ft waves breed diffrent...LAKE P not even close to the gulf as Big Lake.....So please get off the LAKE P...Is a monster lake...I have been there and fished it....in bad winds....hide behind a post like the other yahoo;s

Just an observation:grinpimp: A 2ft wave is a 2ft wave is a 2ft wave is ......whether you are on Big Lake, Lake P, Toledo Bend, or a wave pool

I like the wave pool 2ft waves....they are fun to ride!!

I wonder is this tool has ever been in two foot wavers:rotfl::rotfl:

Yes the bayouchub has been is 2 footers we were fishing the trestles in lake P Friday, when every other wave went over the front deck remember the trestles where you caught you biggest trout ever. You are a very simple minded person
lets call u a cajun redneck, cocky but most of all stupid

On big lake you have 2ft waves close together. Which in most 21ft boats you can get on top and go as fast as you want. But lake p and Breton sound is not like that. The chop is spread farther apart.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

We work birds in two foot waves...and 6lb trout is hardly big....We catch those by accident

Now I see the connection..>Two Pilgrims for the price of one...You and bayouChum..in one boat...

I like them farther apart..less beating up.......... and My boat is 22ft..so I have a extra foot... 21ft 11inchs:rolleyes:

Really Bayou and Speck...You both are 100% Pilgrims...You dont know enough to know you dont know enough.... Your a pilgrim and just because you have been saltwater fishing 3 years please do not act like you know anything...When you are a pilgrim full blooded....Its not your fault..you just dont know enough to know you dont dont know......... I bet you troll up wind also...

You are pitiful little man who gets his rocks off saying stupid stuff on the internet, grow up get a life you little troll doll. Working birds are for Pilgrims you Troll

:*****::*****:
:*****::*****: Just because yall cant fish birds in 2ft chop...dont hate on us non pilgrims....You pilgrims will not fish 35mph winds... We do...You pilgrims think calm seas or the best....You pilgrims think Dumass tells you what they bite on and its church...You pilgrims never seen big fish till I went over and took them on a free for all hole...:*****::*****: on sand eels..... You pilgrims think Live skrimps is what you need for Lake P...

Re
 

If u knew either one of these guys..... U would stop talking.
The fact that u fly off the handle and make statements about people that u don't know is gonna lead to catchin an azz Beaton one day W. I honestly hope this don't happen, but u gonna say something to the wrong guy and he's gonna come ring Ur doorbell.......

W, sorry I'm not going to partake in the name calling game. I'm sure your haynie is a great boat for where you fish. I've got on top of big lake 2 ft chop in an 18ft bass boat. It's not something to brag about. All I'm saying is that a haynie is not in the same class as standard top line bay boats. Now if you want to compare it to any of the other low side bay boats on the market go ahead. But don't tell me it will take rough water better that a triton or blackjack. It may draft less and go a lot faster but that's not what we are talking about here.

Re
 

No body fishes live shrimp on the causeway.... And very few, mainly families and first timers use em on the trestles.

***......THEY ARE BOTH PILGRIMS....P I L G R I MS who dont know anything but act like they know....PILGRIMS..........

Its not name calling is a Lable you get when you become a Pilgrim..

Mighty Cajun Redneck (W) you are the best fisherman in world lets all bow before you. What a joke you are, nobody catches specks like W. LMAO Go work your birds.

Im telling you.... I will but 10K right now....Line up a BlackJack and Trition and lets do this........ In the worst stuff you got..... Lake P or Grand Isle which Ill be down there in a few weeks...

Bring it on.. I know my boat will run or out run any Black Jack or 22ft Trition with not even looking back....

Now this is how a pilgrim acts..... To make him look good........... I can catch trout in your lake...my lake and any other one you want me too...

Re
 

Ur still missing the point that this post was about a 24 ft boat....... Not 22 ft.
Stop posting about 22 ft boats.

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
