Default Outerlimits SV Chine Walking

Is the SV line of Outerlimits prone to Chine Walking? I see a lot of side to side dancing in videos and don't notice it as much on other boats. Most of the videos are of race boats, is that cause they are running on the edge? Is the hull so efficient its running out of the water to much?
The Outerlimits SV is my next boat when my wallet gets fatter, not bashing just asking and wondering if this happens on the pleasure models when not pushing to full limit.

Obviously outerlimits are great boats, and anyone arguing that has no clue. But they are not perfect. Your going to have a hard time getting anyone to write negative about OL though, and there's many reasons like politics, resale value, and egos just to name a few.

But don't confuse "chine walking" with how any V bottom navigates boat slop and wakes they are running parallel with. It's just the nature of the beast. It's really not as scary of a ride as it might look.

The new boat in this year in key west, and the all black race boat both rolled around alot IMO (more than any other boats except the svl class... ) most of the OL pleasure boats I have seen seem to run very balanced and smooth. MAYBE a bit of weight in the cuddy would benefit more than it took away speed?

The fountains run nose light and like they're on a string... pretty amazing to.see how well they're dialed.
