You have to look for steps and free board. I think Captain Yarrr has the newer hull with the higher free board. Both boats ride great but the newer hull boat will have a slightly better ride and a higher top end also. I have been on both. Any questions please ask.
Nope, mine is the older straight V. The extra head room is nice on the newer ones, but it was not worth the price premium at all.

The only true v hull was the orignal innovator hull in 04 which carried over into the newer stepped hull until late 07 and then went to the new stepped hull with a pad.

People tend to blame a pad for a rough ride when in fact, if landed properly, you should not even be able to tell the pad was added to the newer SS hull.

I'm fond of the older Dominator hull due to its stance in the water and, in experienced hands, its surprisingly good ride. That big old nose laying out in front of you makes it hard to not run the boat flat.

Plus it has a more agressive look. Looks fast just sitting there.

Pre SS models look more bad azz. Post SS models have more cuddy amenities. You want the sexy go fast look, or the sporty more family oriented SUV?. Ride depends on whose drivin'.

Friend of mine had 2001 single engine dominator. I loved everything about the boat, awesome looks, very very fast haul, handled the nasty chesapeake bay great and the engine package was turn key for the entire 9 years he had the boat. Still in my short list for my next Boat.

The newer Dominators ride awesome in the snot but I do like the aggressive stance of the older Dominators. Mine is a 94 and I still love the boat.

One of my good friends has one of the innovators which has the newer style hull and I can't say anything about the older dominators because I havnt been in one. but the innovator has one awesome hull under it which is what I believe the used for all the newer style boats and it has an awesome ride.
