I would say a Stroker or Bullet, maybe even an Allison. BUT I have never riden in one so I might not like any of them..

My dream boat: Will be a stable platform, with fishabillity, and moderate speed--say near 80mph
I want a 21-footer with a 300-sump'n, it could be a Cub Cadet as long as it's got 300-hp and bolts up to the transom.
I lean to the Big Skeeter"I" boat first choice.
Ranger next, then the Cat, it's fast and nimble
with a lot of horse power, rounding out the top 4 is the Legend 21 alpha.

Dream Machine #1 after much thought is= Skeeter 21-I with a series 2 300hp Hydro-Tec Tweeked Yamaha. I can get 80+ with that rig. I like speed, just not to much.

I use to think I wanted to go 80 on the water. I would be content with 70 - 75 as a top speed so I can cruise around 65 - 70...

I've been in several different boats and have been impressed with many of them. But if I could have my dream boat tomorrow it would have to be a 21-I w/ the new Yamaha to match it. I really like the ride of the Skeeter and I love the look of the hull.

80 MPH on the water not to fast... pfffft... :-)
Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish

Skeeter ZX225..... On this same topic, I am sending in my order for a 2009 ZX225. I will keep the boat for a year and resale it approximately 12 months from now. If anyone is interested in buying it, let me know and I can adjust the color, accessories, etc... to fit what you would like.

Fished in a 2008 Basscat Puma with a 250 ProXS this past Tuesday. I was very impressed. We were on Texoma in a pretty strong south wind and the boat road great.
As for my dream boat right now any bass boat would do but hopefully I'll have a 20 ft before the end of next year. I don't have a for sure favorite but I would be happy with a Puma, Z21 or a TR21X.

Just ordered my new boat. Zx225 fully loaded. Now I need to get rid of my original ride. If anybody needs a good boat at very, very low price, please let me know.

It would make a great starter boat for someone looking to get started in tournaments or just get out on the water. See classifieds

OZ, I'm a little hesitant to jump into a purchase right now with the economy the way it is. I'm hoping around spring time our business will be picking back up along with the economy. I will be letting the board know when I start looking hard. Thanks for the lead though.

I've changed my mind, I want the boat(a cougar)
Chigger the camera man on the bass Elite trail had. Twin 300's and it'll do 100+ mph and ride like glass. I don't know how to load the video or you could see it for yourself... It's AWESOME FAST.

That video is hilarious... Undoubtedly it gave the idea for the movie "Bait Shop" which was far from hilarious....

Here's my dream bass boat.




She's my dream boat for me cause she's 100% paid for, and I have no payments :-).
Although I do wish I could go faster the 60mph :-(
I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
