I had 23 Nova and liked it. Not a deep V so not real good in big waves, nice size cuddy for being a 23' boat, not real fast either. Depends I think some came with big blocks. Mine had a small block. You've got a pretty broad spectrum of boats here with not a lot of info. What kinda boating do you wanna do. Some of your goals with the boat and clearly more details about the options and conditions of each.

I can throw in a bit more on the nova 23... 20 degree bottom, not the fastest.. spent a lot of time running one with a 330 (454)...I have seen more than a few of them with bad strigers and transoms..trying to run hard in 4 footers it gets scarey... feels like your going to break the boat.. light chop and they are fun..but if you want to be offshore...

I know I dont have a lot of info yet still trying to get the ages on the diffrent hulls. Im more or less looking for a go fast boat project that the wife would be comfortable haning on in the bay or taking the boys out for an occassional ocean run. i guess the bigger might be better in this case
