    Cool 19' Action in the rough ,,,

    this was posted previously as "the ragged edge" thread. nobody noted it as a Action hull. great footage of how this design is able to exit and enter, enjoy


    don't think you'll see an Allison, stv, mirage even come close to sloppy water handling like this,

    Actually the Allison hull is amazing in Rough water . Trim it down and cut right through it with the sharp deep vee bow .

    The 19s ride great so do Alison's but my vicious is bagged and infused it wouldn't have any issue in that. 100+ in rough enough water to break bottles in the sponsons but I've been in my action under the Verrazano bridge

    I agree Tom, but I'm talking about keeping it trimmed out, floating on air and water. in a straight line on calm conditions all three of the designs I mentioned walk away from the older design, but being able to stay "in it" crossing all different angles of "humps" or wakes, I've had great rides in my old 19, including crossing lake George for probably 3-4 miles ahead of 2 mirages with much more HP and triple digit capabilitys on flat water, simply because I never had to let off but for a second or 2 at a time, not to shabby for a tincy little 2 liter that probably only ran in the low 80's

    For a short boat, 20 ft 3 in., I am consistently impressed with the LCB Sportdeck.

    I don't think I would want to try and run with it an Allison or an Action-I've had it in some pretty good chop on Lk. Monroe and Lk. George.

    Very impressive Joe, I've been watching the evolution of those for a while, did you buy one? what do they weigh and what are they selling the hulls for?

    I run in water a lot worse than that, but not trimmed out. (SS2000). It looked like he was having fun.
