It's a buyers market and you would be wise to reconsider the 29 with a single. The 29 has too many advantages over the 27 to overcome the extra size and weight penalty which is minor. It is better balanced and has 3X the fuel capacity which are critical in a performance boat.

Take your time and look at all the inventory. Buyers remorse is scarce is this market so don't let it happen!

I havea 29 and not going to convince you into it, as I dont think the 2ft does a whole lot personally. And with a 27 with a single screw you will be fine towing with a half ton gasser. My twin 29 is just on the cusp of what a half ton would tow, and to be honest I almost thinking about selling boat and truck and getting a 27 with a half ton truck. To be honest with you I am fine with getting crappy mileage while towing, but geting crappy mileage all the time as my truck is primary driver I am not fine with.

But one postive is the fuel tank in the 29, think mine is a 113, 27 is like 40 i beleive but you half half the engines

Soldier4402, what your saying is my exact concern! I have a 4door ford f150 4x4 with the 5.4 so im not worried with either boat i just think the 27 will be so much more friendly to pull! since i will be towing the boat often 240 miles to and 240 miles home over the summer!!
