Default Re: 21 vs. 23 Opinions

If you got a SeaCraft you got a good boat. Both boats are designed well for what they are. BUT there is a difference that I see which is the ability to handle sea conditions. Now I know we all have preferences and I don’t want to say something based on my predigest although some one said there is no such thing as objectivity just varying degrees of subjectivity. That being said I think that if you are going to stay in the bay or go out a limited distance “light off shore” the 21’ is fine but if you have a desire to travel a little further into the ocean the 23’ is the way to go plus if you want 3 or 4 people on the boat the 23’ would be a better choice. Although the 23’ isn’t really that big either it does have more ability to stay on a plain going into 1-3 or 2-4 footers Stretching a little longer over to the next wave. Where as the 21 footer bow is going to go down just as the next wave is coming up to meet you. This is not a design problem it is a length of boat to span of wave problem. So the real question is What are you going to use it for and then go with the one that does that job the best.
