Wanted some opinions on the ride, and handling. 39 super V with 525's

I did a poker run with the guy that bought hull #1. He ran the boat to the Bahamas, called the dealer (fastboats) and had them pick it up and he flew home. He was at the next run in a new Outerlimits 42. He previously had a Gladiator so it wasn't his first performance boat. He kept the 42 OL for a few years.

So Jupiter what are you saying, the ride in these are that bad?

They don't ride like the 43 or 50 thats for sure. Andrew was the only guy I knew that bought one and after that one way trip he traded it. Maybe someone with big power/#6's can chime in to see if it is a better ride.

I've been in 38 Top Guns and 42 Fountains and the 39' ride is very comparable. My boat has more HP than the Merc 525's but that shouldn't make any difference. My boat rides, drives and handles great! I'll be out and about tomorrow for the shootout at LOTO if you'd like a spin over the weekend.
