hustler has bravos, my fountain has trs's. Not sure if its an upgrade in rough water going from 10 meter to a 32 hustler. Dont want to get a justler and 1/2 through the season feel like i made a mistake because the fountain was smoother/handled better in choppy conditions

I know two people on my lake with older Hustlers and the weight was mucher higher then expected. Not sure of these old hulls hold water or what but it takes big power to make them move. One guy up here has 36(I think. may be a 34 or 38) with twin 1100's getting in the mid 60's. The good thing is it the crush the waves.

On thing is for sure, the huster has a much higher freeboard which tends to make for a drier and safer feeling ride in rough water..

AND DONT FORGET THE 37 OUTERLIMITS CAME FROM THE 32 HUSTLER IT WAS THE PLUG. MIKE FIORE TOOK A 32 HUSTLER FROM NJ A BUILT THE 1ST 37 OL FOR THE GUY IN NJ AND OL WAS BORN.

I actually like the way the 37 OL rode, I actually prefer it over the 39, less of a drivers boat. NOW, the 42 is way different, that's a great boat. Looking to get a good ride in some serious water on the 46 to do a good comparision between the 42 and 46.

The boat was built with Bravo's and now it has #5's on it and it's located in Long Island. BUT, the design for the 37 OL really came from the 40' Hustler ala the 32' Hustler.
