Jumping on what others have said here. If you are looking for: a smaller boat that fishes like a 21 footer, made of high quality, backed by amazing customer and community support, and is incredibly fuel efficient, the PII is it. It rides amazing in rough water, the customer service cannot be beat, and other BCB owners are just as helpful IMO.
That boat is a rocket ship and requires driver input. Fully loaded with three grown men, jumps on pad almost instant. That boat is incredibly fuel efficient. My wife and I took it out for a cruise one evening on Nickajack. We put in at rivermont, and ran all the way down to Nickajack Cave, stopping in downtown and various other parts of the narrows (she had never been on a boat downtown before). She is not a fan of speed so I would say we ran about 45-50 on average. The needle was still touching "F" when I put it back on the trailer. On the other hand, I fish the frostbite (local jackpot tx) and BFLs here and on Guntersville. I can easily fish two of those events on one tank of gas. As for rough water ride, you know it can get pretty nasty on the Chick and Guntersville in the winter. This boat handles those rollers with no problem at all.
