Thanks for the replies. I recently had a chance to look at a 25 at the Bass Pro in my area... I checked out the area undeneath the console where the porta pottie is located... To enter through the console door,(front of console/seat) you must lift it up with the assistance of 2 rams that actually hold the door up. Any experience with these rams corroding? or this system failing? The Bilge access door at the transom looked abit tight for larger adults to actually enter. Any problems to look for in that area? What Transom bracing to look for?. ** That 23' looks very nice but prefer the larger size of the 25'...According to the brochure the 25' is about 600lbs heavier then the 23'. Any idea on performance, 25' with Optimax 250hp or Verado 275hp? Thanks, Homey.
