Why would anyone want one without the DDC hull? That step and aft hull is what makes the boat!

so HP...wieght...drives all play a factor in your placement???

Yep.

what would the placement be on a staggered 37 with 1200's?????

on the 37's too???

any other manufacture do that with step/steps placement????

If I had an order for one I would walk down the street to where Harry Schoell resides and have him advise me and build according to his design.

This was precisely what I did when we built the 33 with outboards. The man knows his stuff.

just asking is the single step in a DDC bottom placed closely in the area of the driver and passenger seats ? I would think gas tank size and placement of it would also effect the placement of the step in a DDC hull.

It's directly under the driver/front passengers' feet. Advantage: 20, 50, 80 mph, it ALWAYS pivots right there; exactly where you expect. We've posted some additional info on this in the past.

Thanks Brian as you know I had some of this info from Challenger. I already know what you are going say as not the same the bottom. I hear you. I still have my 2007 Challenger DDC 28. The boat is rock solid and weighes dry at 5850 lbs. The boat handles rough water conditions a lot better than my Velocity 280 but not as fast with almost same hp ratings. I am a true believer that the DDC hull (single step) works very well in the rough is my point here. Thanks again for all the info.

I'm old school I guess, speed isn't the end all for me and it is so much easier to get on or off the trailer by myself at the chitty ramps around here.
I would never ever put all that high dollar paint on a boat again either.
