Boat buyers seldom understand what to look for on sea trials. The biggest misconception we hear is on the various rides of boats. You should understand that there are advantages to the hull design when you are originally looking at a boat. A deep vee is 100% going to ride better into a head sea. The disadvantage of pushing that boat through the water is that it is going to take more fuel to push it, and it is going to roll more when you stop to fish. A flat bottom boat is going to not ride well into a head sea, but is going to burn a lot less fuel, and will be more stable when you stop to fish. The characteristics that vary from boat to boat is the variations on how much “V” there is in the hull, construction methods, the reverse chine to control how wet it is, and the layout of the boat.

Export Yacht Sales acted on my behalf to secure and export my Mastercraft 280sts to Australia. Mike acted very professionally throughout the transaction and looked after my interests as a priority. I would, and have already, recommend Export Yacht Sales to anyone seeking an honest dependable service.
