I've had similar comments from people who should know.
There are lots of good rlding hulls out there, but most of them have negatives relative to Seacrafts or are not nearly as good, IMHO. My experience is mostly: Bertram 25s. great ride but slow and too big and heavy for many uses, Seabird 24, good hull but not even close, classic Formula 23s, excellent rough water ride, but wet as heck and has snap roll issues, Seafari 20, very small boat but excellent for its size, Seafari 25, the king of ride combined with dry, nothing like it, rides better than much larger boats. Some think its too tender

I took a friend out on my 18' SF back in June. He has a 23' Sportsman Heritage with a single 250 Yamaha. He had his boat in for service so we went on mine to go out 18-20 miles for Red Snapper. He couldn't stop taking about the smooth ride of the 18" Superfisherman and said it was smoother offshore than his 23' Sportsman .
His only complaint was the lack of top speed from my 90 hp Etec, which I fairly consistently run at about 21-23 mph, and which only tops out at 34-35 depending on weather and surface conditions.
