My dad has a 24 and loves it, however it's pretty light. He has a 200 Yamaha on it and it tops out at 45 MPH.
That's pretty impressive. I only get 35 knots/40mph with a 225 Johnson spinning a 15x17 aluminum prop.

Regarding the ride of the Seabird vs. SC, I have not found the differences that other members have posted about. Then again I haven't had my Seabird in seas rougher than 3-4' at speed. However, with the tabs down I can slice through 2-3 footers at 27 knots very comfortably.
