Being a tank could be a good thing. A lot of boats these days have hull problems. When that occurs they can be forever fixing them. I know 3 guys who were out of their boat for a year or while getting the manufacturer fixing their hull. One Ranger, one Nitro and a Bluewave center console.

With prices these days you need to be able to get 20 years minimum out of a hull.

63 mph is fine for most users. Exception would be those making their living tournament fishing where long runs can be make or break.

It would be interesting to know what boats she the highest percentage of warranty hull work.

Parent company builds yachts not former racing boat personnel. Who needs a fast, dry riding hull when you can have immaculate door hinges and a suicide door on the console?

The only people who want a boat that does 63 are people with boats that do 55..... you don't have to drive faster you just want to know you can.

I know it will sound like blasphemy to a lotta folks on here but 100% Skeeter. There are ruts on I-20 all the way to KIlgore from 6-12 mo old Skeeters being drug back to the factory

That’s certified for only a 250?

Anything over 20 foot is unlimited. It may have a RECOMMENDED plate but it is not a coast guard plate.

The people buying these boats ought to be ridiculed due to the ridiculous price point. Sure, it's their money (not really, it's the banks money) and they can spend it how they want. But I'll exercise my 1st Amendment right to laugh and criticize those who pay $140k for a bath tub all because Jacob Wheeler endorsed it.

You seem a little jealous.

If I saw someone with a new FXR or PHX then you'd be correct. The bath tub that can barely hit 60mph for $140k is a joke. Anyone buying these things is just showing the manufacturers they can charge whatever and people will pay it.
