I've got the same itch! I really like my Heat and Nordic builds a great boat. The only thing about the Flame that is a turn off for me is the motor compartment, its tight. I do all my own maintenance and as I age I find it not as desirable to squeeze in those tight places..

I don't have personal experience...although I've seen many flames never rode in one but from what my buddy told me that has been in ever model of Nordic made pretty much, its like going from a rage to a heat...night and day difference in rough water handling and creature comforts...that's my input for what its worth lol
