I'm hopefully moving up this month from a 27' 19 degree deadrise 6500# boat to the 340 with 15,500#'s and 21 degrees of deadrise.
One of the two main reasons is for a better ride in the Gulf of Mexico's not-uncommon 3-4' chop when offshore. We like to go from Naples to the Keys and while I can run the Everglades National Park boundary in easy 1's, the straight shot to Key West takes me offshore in 3-4's sometimes.
I'd love to hear how the 340 rides, ie., slamming, pounding, wet/dry, your speeds, how quartering helps your ride,etc etc.
Older models have a 17 degree deadrise and if you have one and would like to comment that's great, especially if you're satisfied with the ride because I'd presume the heavier newer models with sharper deadrise will do at least as well.
Thanks!
