I respect all the comments just looking for opinions and yes I am leaning towards the A T as I really like the 525 along with the I T S and XR drive. Also I understand and know the Velocity hull is much faster and more efficient,But drag it out to the slop and wave bye bye. Trying my hardest to make the AT deal just a little more attractive to me. the seller has been working with me to make this deal work. My biggest concern is the up keep of the 525 and all the CMI issues I have been hearing about.

the headers have had issues here and there, theres a lot more that are fine you see issues cause theres 30,000 people on OSO:coolcowboy:.:party-smiley-004: a friend of mine has the e tops and will not flush them until he is done for the season:eek::eek:.they are going on 5 or 6 yrs and he thought he had a leak but did not it was a head gasket. but did have a weld leak on the out side last yr. so for non flushing thats great. me I flush my stainless marine everytime I use my boat. on my new I went hardin marine big tube hurricane headers cause of the blower but got them as much as sm gen 3s plus tails. that motor you will up grade before you need to do any work. I found myself changing motors 454 to 502 after3yrs then every two yrs later I upped the horse power before it was needed instead of changing boats . hope you go with the AT 28. art :coolcowboy:

I have to disagree with the faster, more efficient comment. You have apples and oranges.

Let's start with two boats that are the exact same wetted length and then make them weigh the same.

Then give me a GPS and let me drive both!

You need a cell phone warning system installed on your fork lift.
