I got soaked in that thing! Its as bad as my Cape Horn! And keeping a straight line seemed impossible. I like the lines and the fact that its a no frills fishing boat.

Customer of mine just got a 31 custom built with twin 350's ...they love it . To me the inside finish with the splatter paint is kinda cheap looking when you spend over 300k on a boat...

Sound VERY high.

Two years ago, a 33 rigged with twin 250s was $99,000
