Grif that looks ugly for my 26,lol. guess I better start looking for a 32-36 cat.

Yep - what Griff said. You will be fine during the week and OK on many weekends. The holidays and shootout are rough on everyone and punishing to the smaller boats.

I would never want to be in a 24ft boat at LOTO on a weekend not to mention a holiday. I have a 33ft which weighs over 10,000 lbs with fuel and it gets a little harry on some weekends. You will not die but the ride will not be comfortable for you or any of your passengers. Its getting to the point on the weekends that you need a 35+ ft cruiser to have any type of decent ride and still can be a little bumpy.

This has to have been taken from the Stoneledge Condo ......the jail break right after the shootout is over!!! Best surfing in the mid-west right there !!!

I think so, not my pic, copied from another site. I was on Stone Ledges dock after the Shootout 2 years ago. There were waves coming over the 6' high wave breaker.

Is this the boat on the Howard website.
Let me know if you have it and I heard it may be for sale.
