Best Deck Boat

I have put about 300 hours on a 2004 240 sea ray sundeck that my parents bought. It holds 12. Not fast or anything, but a real pleasure to drive. Currently it is one of sea ray's best selling boats. Most dealers I have talked to can not keep them in stock. The lines are really classy. I think in the non-performance deckboat catagory under 26ft they are one of the best choices on the market. Cobalt also makes one sweet azz deckboat, but they are just a little too much money.
What kind of deckboat are you looking for - performance, non-performance, 24ft or up to 30ft?
I think those performance deckboats are just a little too dangerous. It just takes one big roller to get the boat out of the water at speed, which I consider very dangerous with a boat full of people in lounge seats.

My dads got a hurricane with a 5.0 and OMC Cobra outdrive.....with a full boat of 12 people (mix of kids and adults) we can pull a tube and still do 35mph around the lake....they are awesome. His is a 1986 20 or 21' model and he wouldnt get rid of it if you put a gun to his head

I will get the details and some picks tomorrow. He also sells trailers. Post an add on OSO, there is always someone headed down to Florida. I know both are new leftovers, and have been stored inside since being delivered from the manufacture.
