I think there were only a couple built with 850's. One of them my boss ordered. Was a 1 owner boat out of Illinois.

something that should be said about a 42 is how bad that they ride at slow speeds.... like 50 mph . Now I am only using the ozark chop for an example probally would be better in a non-washing machine lake..... Travis

Do they bang around until they get up on top of the water? Harsh ride because of the stiffness/lightness? Can you elaborate, as I see you are an owner?

correct. If the waters nasty you gotta be doing 80+ and then you’re having fun. 50-70 in slop and **** water is miserable IMO

Nothing wrong with the 42 at low speeds if you know what you're doing. If you know how to trim it, it cuts right through the chop and efficiently to add.
