I currently own a Z521C and plan on replacing it soon with a Caracal or Lynx. I had the opportunity to drive a Caracal this week. The winds were blowing around 12 mph on big body of water. When driving into the wind the Caracal rode much rougher than my Ranger. I may have not had the trim or jack plate at the optimum settings. When running with the wind between 40 and 50 mph the boat required constant steering correction. I might have been expecting too much from a boat that is 2 ft shorter than my Z521C. It was a handful to drive and required constant steering correction. It felt like the direction of the bow was affected by the waves. Again I may have not had the trim or jack plate at the optimum settings. The Caracal had a G2. If a Caracal is set up properly (prop, trim, jack plate) should I expect that the boat will track perfectly and not require much steering correction at 40 mph? The fit, finish, and gloss was exceptional. I really like the layout of the Caracal more so than the Lynx. I spent some time on the trolling motor and felt very comfortable with the forward position of the trolling motor. I will be checking out a Lynx soon on the water,
