Now that I have had both boats, I would take the Superboat without hesetation. Performance wise, hands down to Superboat! Cost of operation, repairs, maintenance, Superboat!! Trailering, Superboat. The Sonic has a great cabin, but we never used it, so that was not a consideration.

Oh Yea, I like sitting down much better!! Standing and driving in rough water was a difficult, trying to hold on, steer and throttle. At the end of the day I would be very tired!
