Default what sonic would you buy ?

am looking to upgrade from my 26 sonic and am looking at going either to a used 31 , 35 or 38. If you had a budget of $100k range would you go for say a 02 31 or maybe a 98-99 35-38 sonic ? I know the 31 would be faster but the 35-38 sonics have a great cabin . any opinions ?

A buddy was looking at a 28, but may have to shorten the length to shorten the price. What do you have? I'll pass the info along if your selling.

it all depends on where you do most of your boating.I started with a 23 that lasted 1 year then moved to a 25 that lasted another 2.Then a bought a 31and kept that for a year.Now i have a 38. I think that most people always want a little bigger. I think that it depends on where you do most of your boating. There is no difference in cabin space between the 35 and 38, only difference in motor compartment and cokpit room.

I like each of the three. I have a 31 now and love it. Easy to trailer, and the ride and speed is great for me.

26sonic,
Our 2001 358 with 500 efi's may be for sale again (from it's second owner). I can find out for you if you want. From what I heard the owner wants bigger and faster to keep up with his friends Outerlimits.Let me know and I will inquire.
