I�ve been wanting to see it in the sunshine but we only seem to have cloudy drizzle days. Do both you have silver flake rigs and if so, do you have any pics of them? Maybe it�s broken up enough not to be brutal in the sun, but it sure looks like it would be bright. They had a silver flake Skeeter last year and it was bright in the sunshine! Mine has the silver flake cap and it's never bothered me any. To whom much is given, much is required.

They say the 819 is close to the chinewalk speed but doesn�t quite get there. I�ve never ridden in one though, just going by what I read. The 819 should be around $46-$48k, should is the key word. Everyone has their own opinions of chine walking but my Phoenix is actually better about not walking than boats I've had in the past. Granted, if over trimmed it will start walking just like any other boat but it's an easy fix. To whom much is given, much is required.

I've had a 721 for 5 years, they all chine walk. My boat has an 8" manual plate and I can run 73 before it gets to bad. But I will take a solid 70 with one hand any day of the week. Lots of guys running 919's and bumping upper 70's with a hydraulic plate. I rode as a co-angler for two years in the BFL, rode in a lot of different boats. I will put the ride of my boat in rough water up against any out there. Drive one, ride one, before you make a decision.

I wish I could find someone with a 19� to ride with, they are more mythical than unicorns.
