Won't be the first time. Don't get me wrong, I have a 596 now and if I had to buy another boat it would be a 596. Hull is different on a 396, it's rough riding and it chine walks. Tweaked on it some and never could get it right, I couldn't get out of that thing fast enough. But hey, that's just my opinion, I'm sure there's lots of folks that love them...folks that fish very small water and never get it over 50mph..
