Fast, dry, roomy boats
 
Just want to get you guys opinions on what boat ya'll think has these qualities. I know there is no boat that will have all these qualities with them. What I am looking for is a fast, dry, comfortable boat that can take the bays without getting beat to hell. I want to get a 21-22 foot boat.

Most are dry, but the direction you hit the waves can get you wet with spray.
The pounding is what will kill you.

If you want all them thangs, it will cost you. Fountain.

Haynie

Them haynie's ride pretty smooth? They look like they would ride rough with any kind of chop.

Also, the weight of a boat has to with the ride to!

I have a 22ft Champion...Heavy boat but a very nice ride...
200 HPDI...Tops out around 53 or so, but 35 to 40 is plenty fast for me...

Champion
 
21 ft Champion.

Very dry, smooth ride, and will do about 50 with a 200hp.
Only drawback of the 21 ft Champion is the smaller front deck.

Im sure a Triton 22 will do about the same never rode one.

dude our 1910 nautic star rides awesome! VERY VERY VERY dry and super smooth. I was on the side of a 22ft blazer is some good chop and it looked like they were getting beat more than us

I like the look and design of the Haynie's, but I would have to get one second hand. They look pretty expensive ($35,000 and up)

I like the way the Hayine's look, and I'm sure there fast boats but I'm not sure about the dry part.

They have flat sides just like my 1998 Bay Stealth which is a very wet ride.

But I have never ridden a Hayine.

We dont need a bay boat in big lake that will get up in 12 inches of water. We need a boat that will fish the lake and the gulf when the weathers calm.

That is what I am looking for, but with a dry ride

I have a Blue Wave 200 V-Bay Special with a Suzuki 140 4-stroke and i love it. It tops out at about 43 and is a very dry ride,large front deck,decent back deck and it is just a great boat in my opinion. I paid $26,000 for it which is not a bad price.

Cape Bay!!!!!

Hopedale Hustler 11-07-2009 11:38 AM

I have passed up all the boats mentioned, Pathfinder, there is no substitute.

mikedatiger 11-07-2009 12:02 PM

How much does a 2200 pathfinder run? My guess is it's too rich for my blood.

Ray 11-07-2009 12:03 PM

The 24 Pathfinder STARTS at $50K.
