25 sunsation on lake erie
hi im new to the forum and this will be my first go fast boat. im looking at getting a 25 ft sunsation aggressor with 300 hrs on it. it has the 454 mag in it. my question is will it handle the waves of lake erie or should i pony up and get a 8ft beam boat?

You wont need a 8 ft beam. Hopefully you got a great deal and welcome to the insanity that going fast brings! if your married I will apologize to your wife now! where are you going to be putting in at and docking from?

You'll be fine, runs to the bay you may hafta keep an eye on the weather but thats a great boat for this area. Where will you be boating out of? I come out of Toledo//Maumee bay and make the run to the islands often. The 24/7 will handle rougher water better then an eight foot beam boat of the same length.

glass dave is right on the money too, the 7 ft beam is better in rough water!
