In terms of speed there is a huge difference. Now this isnt exactly apples to apples but my boat is an 85 mph boat w 700's side by side and full scx's. Im sure I could get to 90 and maybe 95 w messing w props and prop height but his 41 was 115 w staggered 700s and Nxts. Thats one thing the new tech has acheived. Speed! Now granted its a much shorter cabin and a much lighter boat so maybe. Again Maybe, its not as good in rough water. With all of that said. I love my boat and will not pay 3-400k for a 41 becasue the improvements are not important to me. And thats what its all about isnt it? Having the boat you love and the reasons you love it. I bought the 37 I did because I wanted a/c, heat, pump out head, couch inserts to sleep 4, micro, fridge, etc. So I'm with you there, but there are some nice newer boats and hulls I'd like to know more about, too. I like the staggered and side by side 37's because they have a bigger head, but they are also faster with the same power. OL has done a lot of changing in the last 20 years that many people don't know in depth details on and why they made the changes they did, etc. It would make a great book. |

I actually would like to know a comparison. By that I mean, if you were to buy a 37' for $120k, how does that compare to a 39 Quattro for $170k and how would that compare to a 36SL or 41SL for 250k+(depending on you perspective since the 37 falls in between). What has the technology done? There really is not a lot of detailed info out there that I have seen.
I think it would be awesome to ride on various hulls in the same conditions all in one day to really feel the differences in what that technology has done. So, I actually would like to compare them. I've never been on any OL other than a 37 to know. As far as comparison of a 37 to a 39. Cabin height is very similar but inside is much more updated, speed wise hands down the 39 is much faster, rough water I cant vouch for the 37 so I wont pretend to have those facts but my 39 handles the rough pretty darn good. You probably not going to find a well maintained Quattro on a trailer with nice 700 or bigger power for under low to mid 200's |
I really liked the way our old 37' handled in the rough. Very predictable.

I'm curious why this one is on the market. The guy selling it was after a 37 most of the spring and summer....contacted lots of folks with 37's and I see he finally bought this one. 3-4 months later, it's on the market. Looks like a really nice 37!
