Haynie is a dry ride.
Pathfinder is a lighter boat, so will beat you up in a good chop. You'll want a heavier hull boat that can achive good speed. Out of those...Champion, triton, & blackjack would be your best bet for all 3 options you are looking for. I'd vote for the blackjack. Just my humble opinion. |

I have the Triton and love it. It is a heavy boat but the ride is great and dry. I have the 24 but I guess the 22 would be about the same.

another good big water boat is the hydrasport bay bolt 23
on a budget the 24 mako is a good hull, 24 haynie HO supposed to be bad azzz I have seen those old 23/24 kenner hulls out at calcasieu rock in 3 foot seas |

I've got the 24' Skeeter. It's a heavy hull & rides good. Places like Big Lake can get rough real quick, I never had a problem, just put that nose down & let her eat. Can get 52 out of it on good water. Has lots of room, big front deck.

i got a 2001 19ft kenner and ive been through some rougher stuff than i would like (2-3 footers) it handled it just fine. Also a very dry boat. i get up to around 40 with a 2 stroke merc 125

I would not trade my Triton 220lts for anything. One thing I will recommed is trim tabs. In my opinion you will not know what a boat like the Trition, Champion or Blackjack is capable of handling unless you have them.

check them out.. they are awesome boats and you aren't paying for the name...yet. We have the 1910 and we've fished 4 people out of it comfortable. We can fish 3 on the front deck and 2 on the back deck if we wanted and we have before. Ours has a 115opti and it run about 37 with 3 ppl, full tank of fuel, icechest full and fishbox full. Takes the chop very nicely. The only time we'll get wet when the waves are coming from one of the sides and I gotta go that direction. We've been in 3-4 footers in it and we were running 22mph pretty comfortably and not getting wet. |

purebay2200....hands down. i can run upper 50 in a 2 ft chop. it gets on top and justs rides the waves. it has a big carolina flare then keeps u dry, unless u got a side wind which there is no protecton from that in a bay boat. i can run the skinny water or run out to the 12 mile rigs in venice. ery comfortable ride and never a worry.
trim tabs help if u have a heavy load or unbalanced load. on a flat calm day ill run 62 mph. absolutely love my boat. |

ull hae plenty of speed in a purebay. get the new 24 ft if u can with the 250. either a yammy or etec. the pro xs is a nice engine but pricey. u gan get a good deal on yammys and etecs.
ur lookin @ about 38-40k loaded out. depends on the dealer, but ive seen those prices all over the web. i got mine up for 30k if ur interested. i wanna get a 24. lol |

thats not a speed for the 24, thats a price

LMAO.......I feel like a douche. OK do you have any idea what the speed would be with the 24 footer? But i really think 22' would be more of what I'm looking for!

that 22 is a helluva boat. we fished the shootout this year out of it, very nice ride....
i have the bluewave 22' v-bay w/150 thats quite a bit cheaper but not near the boat |
