Time for a new boat
 
32 skater or f32 dcb?? very different boats I know but wanted to see peoples thoughts. I do most of my boating on the Detroit river, lake erie and lake st clair. running a 25 talon now and its time to move up.

Both Beautiful, great handling boats.!!

How about an M35?

boo 07-04-2012 03:53 PM

I would go to the m31, The 35 is just a bit bigger then I want to go for now

The 06 with 625's in the classifieds can probably be scooped up in the low 140's, don't think a better deal is out there... Maybe 700/NXT setup in the 170-180's...

boo 07-08-2012 12:01 PM

nice boat but I am waiting for a 700/NXT package I wont go any other way

renodaytona 07-08-2012 12:14 PM

How about this M-31:

Both real nice boats the 31 is just a bit more then I want to spend and the skater is a very nice boat just wish it had merc 700s, I'm not a red guy but still a very nice boat.

what are you looking to get for the boat? how many hrs? and overall condition of the boat? send me a pm we can talk

bulletbob 07-12-2012 02:22 PM

I am in a 25 Talon also and looking to move up to a 30 or 32 true tunnel. You know the limitations of that hull. I wouldn't buy another centerpod hull unless I knew I was never going to run in anything over 3' chop.

black thunder 46 07-12-2012 08:16 PM

I would go with the skater because its a true cat.

A 30 Skater, Doug Wright, Motion, Spectre etc with outboards. I love the Talon. They are built like tanks, but, I want to go to a true tunnel. I'm sure you know Talon only built ,I think 15, of your CC hulls. My friend had one and thats why I went with one.
