George, the Contender i was on was a 25' and compared to the 74 23' SC i had, that contender was designed to get you wet in 2' or less. Now on the other hand all outboards boats beeing wet.....not sure. i think it depends on how you drive her, and your experience. i did a billfish tournament in maimi, were the wind was blowing at 25-30 knots, went out on my old trusty 23' SC, and i have to tell you given the conditions it was a dry ride, except for the occasional wave crasing on and over the side.....hehe. I have not had the chance to ride on a 36' Comtender, but from i have heard from people how have, it is the driest boat Contender makes, but then again look at the size of the thing.
