That didn't take long.
Tired of Munta whippin' ya to the feeshing hole? Stroke him. Don't think that's a Mariner Super Mag from the pics, so you're looking at a 20" case and you'll be forced to drive slow at 88 mph to the stick ups. With the right motor, thats a smooth 100 mph boat right there. Catch is, the right motor is gonna set you back in the mid teens and you'll be running a 800 to a 1000 prop with premium fuel.....but it could be done.

Thats too fast to pull crankbaits you gewberRofl
Maybe go fast ain't your thing. In that case, here ya go. Hands down, the best riding rough water boat evah made. And you can laugh at all them ignernt Ranger owners bragging about how their boat rides the waves iffen they had any money left to buy fuel.

Bout as purty as they come right here. Stratos does not allow folks that don't have movie star hair to own these boats though, so most of ya'll is out.

Heart breaker of the 200 ProXL is the second console is not removable and the rod boxes extend past the pedestal base making dual pedestal install almost impossible or at least not practicle.
But I would look good in it and that counts for a lot.

Here's an interesting hull. 929CDX.
Used 2004 Nitro 929 Cdx Sc, Broussard LA - 100572457 - BoatTrader.com
I say interesting because it has the right layout - boxes stop before the pedestal base, has a step up cooler and it's a beam forward design so plenty of room on the front deck. Personally, I view the 929 as a mid level boat as far as build quality and it's not speed demon powered right (this 'un ain't BTW). The 929 was Nitro's flag ship prior to the intro of the Z boats. It has a good ride too, but the buzz kill is I can't seem to find a bargain on one....for some reason, everyone who owns one seems to think it's a premium ride (ie Ranger) and want a premium price. It's actually easier to find deals on Rangers than on Nitros believe it or not.

And speaking of insane, why would anybody want to, must have a set the size of Minner's head fast.
The Allison 2003 Pro Sport.

I'm not an Allison conniseur per se, but you gotta admire their dedication to speed. Hands down, the fastest boat on the water that is a fishing boat. I've only fished out of one and was taken aback by it's oddities in the storage boxes and layout. Not a beamy boat, but fished surprisingly well considering it's a fast boat first, a fishing boat second.
This one has a screamer motor too. Capable to turning north of 7,000 rpms depending on whats been done to it. 2.5 will probably turn a 28" prop and maybe a 30". Ya don't find those at the local Wal-Mart on the marine isle. I'd almost like to own one and invite all my C.C buddies out for a "quick run" and then post pics of the aftermath.
Big down side for me is it'd prolly muss my hair something awful.
