I currently own a 35 Top Gun with 825's that will run low 90's. I am considering moving down in size and maintenance and up in fuel economy and speed as it seems I only have time to run a few poker runs each season. The kids' sports take up the rest of my weekends.

I am thinking of selling/trading the Cig and moving to an outboard powered Mach 26 or F 26. Has anyone made a similar switch in the past? Suggestions, regrets, etc...? Any info on ride and or comparison between the comfort of the DCB 26's would be helpful as well.

Lastly, if you know of any nice ones for sale...

Thanks in advance!

I think you'll get more relevant input or feedback on a west coast forum. I think you'll find a audience with more experience on the boats in question on performanceboats.com and River Dave's Place. My 2 cents. Oh, we love our DCB
