First thing is the out-drive for me, if you really want to build big power its going to cost big money for the drive. As far as the ride quality, its a 1/2 tunnel. Works good in moderate water. In my opinion, the RC works better in the rougher water and will get through it better. Secondly, even though some RT's were built with RC caps most all of the RT's have a different shapped transom, ( kind of rounded at the non-skid and transom) this can make it a little more difficult to get into. Third, the floor is closer to the base of the seat for the driver and passenger seating. It can be a little harder on you back for obsorbing impact.
As with all Schiada's the RT is a very nice boat, just kind of depends what you are looking for.
