26' Sonic - Can't beat the extra 2 feet, plus it's built like a rock
24' Pantera - This ain't no 28 footer.
25' Sunsation - The 28's not bad but the 25' is a bit small for rough water.

I don't want to catch allot of heat for this....
I have ridden in these boats. I really think they are all very close in ride, but very different boats. In IMO the 24 pantera may have a slight rough water advantage. You should ride in all three and see for your self which one you like better.

Re: which handles rough stuff best
I can't find any reasonably priced Active Thunders, and I only see older Sutphens out in the used market. I am interested in the 28 Sunsation but can't find any 97-98s to keep me in my price range. I figure if I get the best handling 24-25 footer I can buy a little newer and still handle rough water in the Chesapeake Bay.
