[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 224163, member: 412"] Not even a little bit. I went from an 18.5' 95.5" wide 1850 Crestliner FishHawk/150 Suzi 4-stroke to an 18.5' long 99" wide Yar Craft 186 TFX/200 & 9.9 Yamaha 4-strokes. The Yar-Craft will run 7-8MPH faster getting the same fuel mileage vs. what the Crestliner would. The Yar-Craft is an exponentially smoother ride and almost indescribably drier, especially running perpendicular or quartering waves. The glass boat tracks better at all speeds. It's hard to explain how much more predictable it is just dropping someone off @ the dock, let alone trolling or running in any kind of waves. The glass boat is ~700# heavier. [/QUOTE]
