The ICC important too us as well.......the NSX has the ICC design as well. Nortec would be cool if we moored but we like to go other places than just home base. Yes a Nortec can be trailered but was told it is like work and not play.

If I purchased a nortech it would be all work and no play just to pay for it. :eek:

Faster, now that you have a few hours in that "Bare-ly Legal", do you like the ride better than the 2600? Or is it 2 different worlds? I am looking at either a 2600 AO or a 24' superboat. Granted one can hit 80 and has a bed, and the other hits 100+ and sleep next to the scoop. Give me your thoughts please.

Well, the Y2K does handle bigger water without a doubt. The A/O was a blast up to 3'ers then your done. The Y2K will handle anything thrown at it as long as everyone has something to hang on to.

.......................................American Offshore..................Y2K

everyday handling......................10.................. ..................8

If I where looking at a 24 Superboat or 26' A/O for same price. I would buy the A/O unless you absolutely have to have a bunk for four. If you where looking at a 30' Superboat, that would be tough as it was for me! I absolutly loved my A/O. The Y2K, I'm falling in live with. It is a bigger boat and that's what I have to adapt to. Not quit as nimble and requires a little more driving skill to run near 100mph.

Anybody ever try to water ski behind an NSX? I want a cat but water-sports are a must for the family.

Re: American Offshore NSX
 

Done that. Just need a prop that hooks up good. At 25mph you have alot of prop ariation with a Bravo1.

Re: American Offshore NSX
 

Thanks for your imput.
Loved watching your boat being built.
Turned out VERY nice.
Thanks again.

the new maximus 5 blade would probably make that work out... from what i hear it bites hard...

Don

I don’t suppose you know the history on your AO? Looks a lot like my grandpas that was then my cousin Tom Coles out of Ohio.
