Those 25' predator cats have caught my eye. Brand new pretty reasonable cash semi rigged from the factory.
Haven't heard much on the performance or quality.

Never ridden in one, but from the vids i really like the looks of the RPM.

A Talon is where most of the single bottoms originated from. Very well built boat.

[QUOTE=MrSneakAttack;3838660]The best bang for you buck IMO is an American Offshore 2600. I have had two and you cant find a better 100mph boat for the price of an AO. They are not built cheap and are priced at what a boat this size should be sold at. They will run if you put the horsepower to them. It is not a rough water boat and should be ran on rivers and small lakes only. Ask me any question and im sure i can answer about these boats. Yes their are many boats out there with more bling but cant run with this boat true hp for hp. Been there done that. This video was my last AO that I owned 2yrs ago and had a big motor that ran 100 true mph everyday all day loaded down with gear and ho's. The fastest i ran the boat at was 114mph. I do miss this boat at times.

problem
we live on the bay so salt water is a must and its always choppy thanks

I know where you boat...i know how you run...especially when your ahead of me :D
Get a 24,28 Skater or a 30 Spectre/Motion and be done with it Mikey.
