I own one. It's a 2022 231 Hybrid with the Fiberglass T-Top. Has a 250SHO on it and it performs great with that engine. Not sure I'd get a 200 on one.
I had to get some fibeglass work done after delivery but Dear's Fiberglass did a great job. I didn't want it when we bought it because I wanted a raised front deck for fishing but the wife wanted the front seats for the beach/cruisin days, she won. I can honestly say it fishes very well even with the lowered front section. I have a 36v 112lb MinnKota Riptide Terrova on it and it pulls it around w/o any issues. No power pole on mine.
The boat is light on the front so in chop the front end can take a beating especially if it has a novice driver who doesn't know how to work it in rough water. But we run in around Perdido Key/Pensacola and cross Pensacola Bay with it w/o issue.

Factory defect?
The fishing part is what I'm most concerned about - I do a lot of casting - Wondering if casting from that recessed deck was a problem OR if that section on the front is enough to move around on.
I also like the Carolina skiff ultra elties, but i think they only have one livewell, and some of them don't have a rear casting deck.
