Since the Checkmate forum is under construction, I figured I would post this question here. I hope this is in the right spot moderator.
I am looking @ 08' Checkmate Pulsares. The question is weather I get a 20' or 21'. The price difference is nill, so handling, hole-shot, and top speed are my issues in this big decision.
In overall length the 21' is only 10" longer than the 20', but the 20' is wider, so I wonder which will handle better in rough water. I think the weight difference in nearly zip, so that should not matter. Please help with the following questions:
If anyone owns one of these boats (I think the hull is the same 06',07',08'), what are you running for a motor and on which size boat?
What are you getting for top speeds (GPS Please)?
How is it out of the hole-shot/with a slalom(sp) skiier?
Would you get the same set-up if you were able to do it again?
I really appreciate the help, I don't plan on buying a new boat for quite a while so I would like to get the best bang for my buck.
Things have changed so much since I bought my last Checkmate, I would really appreciate your input.
Thanks Again.
