Default Best hulls

Ok here is a simple question. LOL!!! What are the top 3 hull / boat choices for running fast, boating with family and being able to use boat on all lakes as well as coastal waters. Looking at Fountain 35-42's. Would love more input.

The more freeboard the better. The Fountains don't have as much as an equivalent Cig. The Fountains are lighter and probably faster w/ equal HP. My .02

You should buy a skater!
if that is out of the question I would look at donzi I think that they are a better built boat than fountian. Cigarette is a much better built boat than both fountian and donzi but they are slower with a better ride and resale! Whats the mission??? I would look at 35-42 Cigarettes personally!

Smaller than your looking at...........

But I loved the 31" Sonic I had!

Can't beat there cabin room, specially with family in mind.
Still could trailer it to large and small bodies of water.

Loved the big water in Lake Michigan, these pictues were in 3' to 4' waves that day.
Pictures never really reflect the wave size well though.
