Procraft Hull Stability
I have a 1992 procraft 180 combo. Its a heavier boat, listed at 1800 with the motor. But whats the hull like on that at speed? I can only do about 45-50 with it on glass with a 115 Mariner and 19p prop. I am considering repowering, but will that hull be safe into the 60+ mph? Where we boat we do get lots of chop (Torch lake) but usually nothing over 1 foot. How good (or horrible) are these hulls? My experience has been ok with it WOT on glass, but thats not too fast either. Never really pushed it in chop because i dont want to end up swimming if its not a good hull for that haha. Any experience with these. I think they are the same as Triton hulls if i understand correctly.
Also considering a Baja 210 Sport with a 225 Mariner out back as my fast boat, but prefer the procraft because of the room for the fam when they want to join (almost always!)
