Looking at this boat. What kind of performance to expect? Boat is stock and looking for some opinions from owners. Thanks

I have a 29!


I think its the best bang for the buck! Mine has a whipplecharge 502mpi.

A buddy of mine has 350's in his. It handle great! Docking is a piece of cake! It should run in the 72 to 76 mile an hour range!

He did however have a few prolems with shifter cables breaking a coulpe of times. It was determined that the factory had them routed in a position causing this. His mechanic fixed it and no problems to date!!

I think it handles the rough stuff better than any boat in its length. This is only my opinion though! I slice through 2 to 4's no PROBLEM!!

They have a rock solid hull.

Good luck!

I agree with these, on my 29 my cable problem was only that it was hard to shift, but never required any adjustment.
I would buy another one in a herartbeat.
Buy it
