Unless it's a full displacement hull:) We tend to use the entirety of any hull when it gets rough, (when it counts) by trimming down and keeping the boat in the water (when it comes to a V-bottom). The 2.5 feet handing off the front as a beak or pulpit, or 2-4 feet hanging off the back as a swim platform or bussel does nothing to increase the wetted surface of the hull and/or improve the ride. (There are a lot more factors than length, but it's the majority player.) |

2 friends 1 with an AT and 1 with 388. Have spent equal time on both. I got no skin in the game but the AT is heads and shoulders nicer in ride and room just 5 MPH slower with same power. AT all the way!!

I can tell you I sleep on my 388 hustler 20 times a year and it works great for me and 5 girls. :))

Waterline & overall. |
We have loved our Hustler since day one! proper tab and trim and it has run thru anything i have put it in, as Sydways said we have slept 4 adults for 2 full weekends with no complaints :drink:
I have the ITS which helps with overall handling, it is a "Drivers boat" which i love, gives great feedback and nothing tricky, overall quality and rigging is hard to match, but it all comes down to what ya like! you would be great with either one, just gepends on if you want to join a "CULT" or a "CLUB" !! :evilb: good luck.
