Anyone have a 28 that's somewhat local that would be willing to let me come check out?

Don' t waste your time. Go bigger.

Then either I upgrade/downgrade trucks or slip it if I go bigger

Buy a 32 Sun. Same size and prob less weight than the Savage.

Ride and built like a bass boat.. lol

lol and less ride in the chop than a 28.

Buy a 32 thunder you will love the twins and the 32 is a awsome ride.

Id love a 32 but not enough $$ to double the boat payment and upgrade truck too

One of my buddys i boat with has a 28 and another one has my old 25 the 28 is much bigger boat than the 25 when side by side and handels the rough much better as well. 500 efi in a 28 is a 70 mph boat on gps. picture on far right is my old 25 and the 28 beside it.

A friend of mine has a 28 and he lives in Cedar Springs

Really!? Think he would let me come look at it?
