Man look at the price on a 26' Edgewater, they must be OUTTA their minds Who has that kind of expendable cash is what I would like to know, I have done pretty well for myself and made some saavy business decisions but I just don't see the attraction in spending 100K for a 26' boat.
How is the CAT in heavy seas? I've never ridden one but I'd imagine that the centerline hits hard when there's nowhere for the water to go.
It looks awesome however. How long have they been out? Any history on longevity? seems kinda light for a boat that size. I'm wondering if the hull quality is there.
gf2020 do fish the world cat now? Sorry to hijack the thread, but just wondering what type of performance it gets.
I do not own a cat, I have a McKee Craft 196 center console. From everything I have read and heard World Cat makes a top notch product (with prices to match). Maybe if I won the lottery...
Cape Ann Marina in Gloucester is a dealer and I imagine they will have a few on display at the boat show in 2 weeks.
Actually, I have not heard the same about WC. They would be the last of the cats I would consider. I've read that they have had numerous defects causing hull integrety problems. They usually don't bring the bigger stuff to the shows, but they do have them in the yard.
Like I said before, I have a sea trial scheduled for the demo days
Can't wait.
Those McKee crafts are sweet. My friend has a 16 tender and I love it. use it all the time.
So I was favoring the HydraSports 26. I have a 1995 22' and really feel like it is a quality boat. I realize that there have been changes, but I'd like to hear why they aren't making them anymore and why you don't like them.
Let's put some criteria on suggested 26' WA's:
1) must be trailerable
2) no gas in boards (diesel or outboards)
3) you have $65K total to spend (2 to 5 year old used preferred)
