Default 33 vs. 36 outlaw

Can anyone compare the ride of a 33 to a 36. Especially in rough water. I would expect them to be about the same...

More weight equals a better ride in the rough. Go with the 36 if you will be in rough water alot.

Like I have always said, "A Foot is like a MILE" on a boat.

They both ride very well, but the rougher it gets the extra three feet starts to show up.

As Steel Outlawed recently said, buy all the boat you can afford and that you can trailer.

I second that and I own a 33. I have spent plenty of time on the 36 and it definitely rides better in the rough stuff. But don't get me wrong the 33 rides great also. Just not quiet as smooth in the rough stuff as the 36.

Had a 272
Have a 33
33 rides better...LOL
Common sense would tell you the weight and footage the 36 would ride better. But...there are varabiles to each boat that makes a world of difference. Driver experience, tabs, drive height, props.

I bought a set of bravo 1 four blades for my 33 while my 3 blades were in the shop getting labbed. Mercury Racing said "DO NOT PUT THOSE 4 BLADES ON YOUR BOAT". Man were they right. I was embarrassed to have people ride with me at LOTO

Do not understand that?

I do not know of anyone with a 33 that is not running four blades. Actually Baja shipped them out with 4 blades.
