I've been curious for a while about this: What is the ride and handling of the bow riders Formula makes comparable to the Fastech?

Just from the specs of the hulls since I haen't been on the bow-riders they should bounce you a bit more. They are wider and not as deep a V. They are heavier and that migt help but I would expect the fastech to ride better.

(I would expect the Formula bowrider to do as well or better than any other bowrider though)

yup,shallower and wider , completely different ride
