Went for a demo in a Stoker 224. It was like being in my 997S. Except on the water!!!Acceleration,Handling and running 105 MPH with the bimini top up!! I could not believe a boat with a full engine cover ,a naturally aspirated engine on pump gas could run like that, in 117 degree + weather. I have been looking for the ultimate water ride , i thought it was going to be a DCB, but after being in the 224, there is no comparison .The Stoker will look sharp next to the Carrera!!

Well do you think some one is full of chit or what. 1/18 scale model Porsche. I'm not buying the story.

That was his 2nd post. I'm looking for the one where he said he just bought a RUFF 997s.

If your looking at 224's, my buddy Mark is selling one with a quad rotor setup that has been GPS'd in the low 140's mph range.. Let me know if your interested. It's the same boat Stoker uses in all their adds, he's just since added more motor.

Do you think there would be a comparison between the 2? Don't get me wrong I love DCB's 22, but compared to a 224 Stoker there isn't much of a comparison. The DCB probably has a little better ride at slower speeds, but once your up and running it'd be similar. The Stoker on the other hand is quicker, faster, turns better, etc.. etc..
