That's what blows me away about the sit down boats and kinda why I started this...can you even see over the bow?? LOL Granted I have to be a lot more conscious of waves in my little guy but I would think even in a big skater or gladiator or whatever you would still need to see over the bow and watch the water...I just think I would always try to be standing up or struggling to see over the bow...that being said I have never been in one of these types so maybe the seats are high enough that you can see everything possibly?
I guess its almost the same dilemma with the left hand throttles in a fountain...some people hate them and can't get used to them and some say it takes 5 min to get used to... |

Will never stand again until I throw in the towel and get a CC. Probably still sit in the seat then and just cruise. I'm 51 and my knees are toast |
Ok so being a cat does it land softer than a vee? Never been in a cat at speed like that so I really don't know how they land just seen videos hahaha....also do you have any type of suspension on the seats? If I was sitting in my boat and launched like that I would need an ambulance at the dock cuz my back would be broken hahahaha....granted I do have a small lake boat so its way different anyway lol

So if this turns into a "show your launch" picture thread I am TOTALLY fine with that!!! Awesome rides fellas!!!

I sit when running hard. I feel I have more control of the boat, as well as visual access to the important gauges. I was also told several years ago at a poker run that standing while running hard is "a good way to get hurt". The guy is older than me and has experience running 130+ in a v-bottom. ....so I took the advice and didn't ask questions. :) |
If I was cool enough I would sit on the tops of my bolsters while running like the Candyman. :cool-smiley-026:
