they will do anything you need them to, but a 22 footer will do it a lot faster and more comfy

I had a 2002 model Kenner Vision 1902. Had a 150 and did 50+ in it! Loved it and went anywhere I wanted, but upgraded to 22 ft frontier by K2 marine. Like LA said, you'll want the extra room.

If you want the old Kenner hulls now, you have to get a Mako. They use the old Kenner hulls. Still great hull, but you pay more because of the name on the sticker.

Blackjack and Kenner are priced similar?

Default 23 kenner

This week I ran a 23' Kenner with a 250 Suk rigged with rapid hyd.jack; boat rigged with trim tab's.Wed. Didn't see but one other boat on the lake . Once behind the weirs had no trouble going any where. Fished bird's in lambert lake and other lakes to east .With motor raised a couple inches and trim tabs down bow never rose and boat just skated out the hole.
My father owned the first 23 kenner Jerry,s had . It to was completely rigged for rough and shallow running.
