Hey Patrick! I haven't seen you online for a long time. I don't spend nearly as much time here as I used too either.

I'm still enjoying "Superstitious". Lost an outdrive last yr...OUCH! All good other than that. I am starting to take a liking to the center consoles, particularly Concepts.

Somewhere around 2007/2008. I think "Oh-Zones" was the first with the newer bottom. His is a 2008.

I don't think Superbabi has the new bottom. It was built a few boats before mine.

Correct Dave, Superbabi has one of the last old bottoms, too bad, a Good boat could have been a Great boat.

Hows the handling between the two designs? Always been partial to more but smaller steps for better handling. How do the size and placement of the steps compare to the 2 vs 3 designs?

I doubt there is a noticable difference.

It's very noticeable. The bow rides much higher with the newer bottom. And it's a few MPH faster
