Hello,
I am currently looking to upgrade in size from my 21' Cole jet to something a little bigger/newer.
I will be buying new and I would like to stay in the 65-80K price range.(This pretty much rules out the Howard/Hallett)
Power will come from a 496HO and it will be left alone.(For warranty sake/reliability)
The boat will be open bow with a cuddy cabin.
The boats that I am currently eyeing are the 25' Nordic Rage , 26' Sleekcraft and the 27' Dana.
I would like to hear some opinions on speed,handling,value,rigging and overall manners.
Any feedback or experience with the 3 companies/boats would be greatly appreciated.(I can't find alot of info on the Sleekcraft?)
We typically boat on the Parker strip or Havasu and might make an occasional trip to Catalina once or twice a year so we would like something that would do 65+ and be good in the late afternoon Havasu chop.
Thanks for your help!
Brandin
