Yeah, I don't want to deal with a submarining of the bow. It starts a nasty domino effect on a bow rider that I would never want to confront. I boat at the top of the Chesapeake Bay. Only time I had a moment was going out of middle river for a trip to the inner harbor. Going was easy. Conditions turned on the way back making it a white knuckle ride.
She's extremely reliable and as capable as can be. Not tempting Neptune with this comment. The size of the boat fits so well into our lives. Garage kept, no boat insurance or monthly payment, cheap maintenance and really no problems (on going or present). Runs 42mph wot. Tough for me to want to go with a bigger boat that will not work (in the garage, towable, adding a payment to monthly expenses and keeping her off site).
Although increased range, overnight stays and reduced risk of taking on water sure is TEMPTING...
"no boat insurance" Seriously?
