Dude I have seen my share of 28 Sabers. Rode with one this weekend. I know exactly how they ride. I have also ridden or drove in a 36OL, 33OL, 29OL, 25OL, 41 Apachee, 290 Powerquest, 38 Scarabs, several old Formulas, and spent plenty of time behind the wheel of a 33 Powerplay. And those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head. Have spent my whole life on Lake Michigan riding and driving performance boats. Sorry but no 28 Saber will ride as comfortable as a 36OL in real 3-4'.
So I don't want to hear about things falling apart, who has more race trophy's or any other B.S. I am talking about how comfortable you are going to be riding in that boat. Not how fast it will go. Sure a 28 Saber with 500's is gonna be faster than a 36OL with 500's. It's a hell of a lot smaller boat. And I would take the 33 Powerplay over the 28 Saber any day of the week in any kind of water. Oh I forgot the several Fountains I was on as well. |

41 Saber rides sweet as hell, and Jerry told me his 28 with HP500's was the funnest boat he ever owned.... over Clifford, I would have to say the 28 probably does fine! |

Not bashing any boats but if Baja and Fountain can run in the rough with a Cig or Apache then how come you don't see them in the races?? Fountain yes but it's their race version. I could be wrong but I don't see any bajas or lightnings out there.
A good rough water boat would be any Larry Smith Scarab!!! Smokin Joe, best boat of all time!!!! |
And if Baja's are so bad, how come my 1988 with 1000+ hours on it, Is still in one piece? And it's not the only one because I see plenty of them for sale, still looking good. Think it might have to do with how the owners treat them. Maybe people that own Baja's take better care of their equipment, because they value it more? I don't know I'm just talkin out my butt now.

I really couldnt care less what a guy who has NO boat says, pretty sad you have to talk smack about your "buddies" boat to get some Cred, regardless of how many boats you CLAIM to have owned/ridden on.
I am waiting for the post claiming his "his Dad can beat up my Dad" ooops I mean his "buddies" Dad can beat up my Dad I have a buddy with a 39 OL Quatro with Merc 850"s and #6's maybe you, ooops, I mean your "buddy" could come down and school him in rough water too Your invited to jump on your private jet and "fly in" if you want to watch. |
