There's something about following that graceful line of an offshore powerboat from the bow down the spine right into the water at the rear (aft?). Outboards seem to screw up "that" look, they look great on center consoles though! But who doesn't want more cockpit room? Especially on smaller boats. But which idea is more technologically advanced?

Anyway, can someone answer this question:

Take two identical boats, 24' Panteras. Put a 496 Mag in one boat and a 300XS on the other boat. Which one will be fastest?

If you are truly interested in one, let me know. It appears as though the 33 w/ outboards is a little more appealing.

Saves weight and drag; no SB tab needs to be installed.

(Took me forever to find a pic with a transom at that angle!)
