I am currently in the process of getting a Progression 22. I live in Bermuda and most guys I've talked to here don't have many good things to say about the boats. Most say that if I buy it, it has to be raced. They say it's not a pleasure boat and is hard to drive as well as very dangerous. I've also been told that the perfectly working Merc 280 is just a problem waiting to happen. I was planning on buying it just to have fun with it. I understand that all things have problems which cause you to spend from time to time (still looking for that car that has no problems) but the amount of negative comments I've heard have me second guessing a bit. Please give me a little insight on these boats if possible.
