Hi Guys ,
Looking for Input regarding a cat in the 32-37' range. I see there are some decent deals out there and have been seriously considering a second boat for poker runs, or quick runs to PIB for burgers lol. I have never been in one but all my friends that have say it's the cheapest way to 100! Not looking to go 150 or even 120 for that matter just something that will cruise in the 80-90 range and be bullet proof and somewhat safe (being a relative term). The lake can get washy on the weekends with 3-4' common? The formula ss is just not cutting it anymore. In researching looks like 36 Spectre and 37 talons can be had at a reasonable price, sadly the skaters and nor-techs are more than I'm looking to spend. Really like the 6person capacity of the Spectre but in reading I hear about this "porpoising"?
Thanks for the input.

This will get the job done. In rougher water there will be no porpoise issue, in calm water porpoising is the nature of the beast without a pod.

This looks clean. Save some money up front so you can make it go faster as needed.
