I'm in the market for a new boat. I have a 21' Checkmate w/ 225 Promax that does 70ish. I want my next boat to do 80+. Here's my dilema. I want to go fast, but still have good ski-ability. I have never driven a cat before, but from what I've gathered a mod VP or V-hull would suit me better. I'd like some opinions on these boats.
1) DCB 22 w/ 300 Promax or HP500/496HO
2) Stoker 224 w/ HP500 or 496HO
3) Ultra 21 or 22 Stealth w/ HP500
I run on an inland lake and ski 30% of the time. If any of you have these setups I really want to hear from you.
Thanks in advance
