Trying not to be biased, but after working for Active Thunder through the late 90's and getting to drive many 25's and the first 28's, I'd have to vote for the Active Thunder 25. It's a great rough water boat with tall freeboard and a good sized cabin to overnight in. If all out speed were your hot button, then the Velocity 260 (24' plus the swim platform) would be a great choice. For comfort, Style and great quality I would choose the Checkmate 25' Convincer GTX!

Very happy with the Krypto, but does not qualify in this discussion. The super was a great 24' boat that I had a ton of fun with.

I can pretty much break 90 any time. Will run 93-94 under good conditions. There is probably more in it if I wanted to set it up strictly for top end.
