I’m looking at what will be my next boat. I owned an 09 Triton 20x3 and it seems to handle big water fairly well but was slow.
A month ago in my buddy’s 17’ Nitro we were in some big water and getting tossed around and I watched a Phoenix fly by us like the big water was nothing. I’ve ridden in a few Rangers that seems smooth as well but I know driving skills are a big factor. I don’t consider myself an expert driver but definitely not a beginner driver.
Wanted your guy’s opinion on a new boat that not only handles the big waves but can handle it while maintaining a good speed and doesn’t slam you hard like every Nitro I’ve ridden in.
Right now I’m considering Phoenix, Triton, Skeeter, Ranger, and possibly Bass Cat
Thanks.
