I love the Nordic Heats - I've had a lot of seat time in a 496HO MCOB the past couple season in calm water, great lakes and poker runs. The Nordic is well built and is a pretty fast/light hull. What I found when running in rough water or chop is you cant expect to beat through the waves, it's a throttle down and hang on kind of ride.


I'm a huge active thunder fan but the 25 tantrum is TINY

Sounds like a pos to me if it was a.well bult offshore boat you could hammer fhe cdap out of it bruh.. Throttle down do everything you can to aviod the waves doesnt sound like a fun day on the water. All your drunken buds behind screaming nail it and air.the btch out now thats what im talking bout. 24* and a bunch a resin thats what ur lookinng for wont get all loose and out of shape on a novice driver either til he overpowers it a bunch.

I wasn't ripping on anything, just stating the facts. I have owned a 28' MCOB with a 22deg hull for the past 5 years. I know what a rough ride feels like. Had a 27' MCOB before that. My Advantage is huge compared to the 288 Sunny and it is still rough compared to a heavier 24 deg hull.

If he plans on boating in anything but lakes buy a 24* hull. You wanna go really fast get a lighter layup boat. But a 22* hull will beat itself and its passengers to death. Some resin buckets have steps. There are so many nice used boats for sale right now its a great time to be in the market. Buy a cig or other brand that will hold value and had an analretentive owner... several #3 & 3a & 5 boats out there now. You can beat em and beat em and not come home on a rope like the bravo boats

I have a Nordic Rage, they are really well-built boats, look great, and have an efficient stepped hull. They run some good numbers with modest (or stock) 496 power.

With that said, they are not the best rough water boats, but they make an excellent lake boat. If you're running in anything considerably rough I think you're still going to get beat up in anything in the size range you're looking at

I agree with Island on this.

A 24 degree V will make a noticeable and real difference at the end of a long day.

Where you can notice instantly in a switch from boat to boat is in holding an offshore course against an ocean swell.
