Could length/bouyancy have anything to do w/ that?

A straight bottom gun will have more freeboard.
My 35 was a 2002 and tied up next to another 02 top gun (bravo drives) they were the same. when tied up next to Tom's ( Hot for Teacher) i had a little more freeboard but he has 6 drives and big motors

I don't know but I can tell you the boat I was tied up next to had 4 guys that were all 200+, I had two guys about 180 and two chicks about 100. I would have thought that since the Gun was longer is would have been higher.

I agree the free board is less but I think the cockpit is as deep.

I'll second that (or third that). I now have Tricky's Playboy and it seems no matter how she's loaded, she'll do 82mph all day long.
