There are plenty used as guide boats here(70645). Dryer than; 23v Kenner, 24 YF, Majek, Pathfinder, Skeeter.
Hold up extremely well fishing 250 days a year, fast enough, will go shallow, plenty of room to fish 4, preform great even with 225 v6 merc.

Have had two: a 2010?? 19 footer then a 2013 22 footer

Solid no frills boat, does most things pretty well. The 22 ran plenty dry, very stable side to side (224 XTS at the time, now I think that's a 227XTS).

Fit and finish was "decent" but known to have a lot of quality issues with minor things so look carefully at wiring, fittings, thru-hulls, etc.

On delivery of my 22 footer, my front-of-console livewell fill line was not connected to said livewell, thus when turned on, it was simply filling the boat with water, yes, true story. Had someone like my folks accidentally hit the switch on an outing and not paid attention, could have been a pretty big deal.

Thats a pretty high bar to get over...I am more interested than I was. I don't know how I have missed the brand...I consider myself pretty well versed in boat hulls and I knew they existed but I haven't ever heard much about them. That may be due to people being pretty satisfied with them...satisfied folks tend to keep quite while disgruntled folks tell everybody everything LOL. Thanks!
