Looking at a 2009. Anyone own or have ridden in one? How do they ride? Wet, etc?

my buddy has that boat and its about a 2009-ish model. Coworker has the 22'. Solid boats. Well laid out. HEAVY but helps for a good ride. His 24' is a dog with the 225. Hes got a 300 sitting in the garage waiting to be installed. Dont get it with anything less than a 250.

i fished in one several times: good layout, good ride, HEAVY as stated above but with enough hp it will be ok.
you can have 2 out of 3 things in a boat: speed, fuel efficiency, good ride. choose the 2 most important to you because the 3rd is gona suffer somewhat.

They are very good boats. It is a time tested design that has proven itself.

Honda 225 on the 24': +/- 45mph wide open
Honda 225 on the 22' w/ t-top: 47-50mph wide open
On average, Id say the 250 will get the 24' LTS 48-52 mph wide open depending on load.
Both of the guys i know are moving up to a 300hp Yamaha.

There's 6 guys down the canal we have a camp on, all have the LTS 240, all running 250 or 300s. Have fished in 2 out of the 6. Dry boat, takes the sea well. Only other boats I like better is the Champion 24 or the Contender 25

Fish out of a 22LTS a lot, love the lay-out since I don't sit and love to move around.
We ran ahead of a deep V in weather cause we could, airborne some but handled it very well. 2 old men were checking joints after though.

Buddy has the 260 LTS and that thing is a freaking beast. Has a 350 yammy on it and it gets up and goes pretty well and a very dry ride in a chop
