The 344 runs fine in the rough stuff. Not as fine as a 388, but that's a bigger boat...

Mine handles it fine. A few hard slams here and there. But just returned from LOTO and the wakes are some of the worst you'll ever see, tabs down a few notches drives nuetral and we were fine.

Elite thanks for the response, not allot of talk on this site about the 344 cheetah. You here so much about the 32 AT and 33 Powerplay running the rough water good would like to know if anyone knows how the cheetah compares to them.

Hello TEZ,

Like Heiko said (Frogger1403), the 344 Cheetah rides great in the rough water, but like everyone knows, will not ride as nice as her larger sister, the 388 Slingshot.

Kirk (Elite Marine) says it the best, that the water in Lake of the Ozarks can get rough at times. As long as you put your tabs down, you are good to go boating.

If you have any other questions about the boat, give either Joe or myself a call at the shop at 631-208-2933.
