I have no personal experience with this boat, but there are numerous posts about them on The Hull Truth.

One thing to note Chris is a simmila size boat will draft less with twins over a big single as the twins sre higher off to each side then thebsingke sticking below the center of the hull

Here my take on it if tour not a fishaholic. E ter. Onsoles genersly dont have allt of vreat seating. I wouldnt mind a nice deckbost. If you do eant to fish andhave somthing you wouldnt mind a little blood in maybe a walkaround if you need a small cabin and head or a duel. Console. For just cruising i like a boat that has a sindow i can rest my arm on and lean on. That why i got the larson. I dont alway want to fish. And like a little more. Oncort then a cc offers. The. Harlotte aounty bost show should be arount the 18 of january
You could compare.

Looks great! I don't remember the upholstery looking that good. Did you redo it?

I agree with Pcozad1, one boat here is NOT enough, nor is it the right boat.
You wife WILL tell you, you need a cruiser!!
If you want to hang on the fishing thread - you need the boat you have, which is the most versatile.
However, you will also wish for a flats boat to get into the shallow areas especially during snook and red seasons.

She did tell me we needed a cruiser. Our last boat was a 47' FBMY with twin diesels, gen, twin a/c's, tv's, two heads, washer/dryer, etc. Went from Ft Myers through the keys and up to the Chesapeake with it. Our dink was an 11' whaler. However now we are in the 'shallows' and under a 10' bridge so our needs have changed. We still think about getting a 40+ MY an just going to the keys. BUT we'd have to give up our waterfront with pool gig. Guess it's a trade off.

Ok, more boats it is! Even a 12' aluminum with a 9.9 is sweet!

Cheers!
