I agree with Craig on this one. Gambler is a WOT hull !

big-waters, maybe he didn't know about the TAC system in the modern

Yeah, I mentioned the TAC system in my first post. Why not a big water
boat? The hull is made for high performance (Speed and handling), but not
for cutting through 1.5 plus foot waves. Bam, Bam, Bam or Whoosh, WAAAA,
BAM! Whoosh, WAAAA, BAM!

In my opinion, the following are Very Nice Big Water Bass Boats:
1. Nitro 9 Series (901, 929, 911 CDC
2. Bass Cat Pantera, Jaguar, and Cougar
3. Champion 203, 223
4. Skeeter FX 210 & ZX 225, 250, 300
Not necessarily in that order. I love all of these boats and how the
handle
in rough waters and calm.

I love Stratos's looks, Gambler's speed & looks (225 Yamaha), Skeeter's
SWEET maneuverability, Nitro's 9's, Champion's, and Bass Cat's consistent
smooooooth ride. At 45, that Smooth ride plays big in my book, but at
your
age, the speed and quick handling of the Gambler and Skeeter would have
out
weighed comfort.
