An unintentional oversight...
How do they compare w/ those listed in rough water handling, speed, interior space (2 seats or 4??) High speed handling??
Thanks

I have a 21ft Howard and my friend a 20' Schiada twin turboed. The Howard is smoother in rough water and the Schiada is more responsive in steering and to horsepower. The Howard will go straight through 2 foot chop at 60mph, never unload the prop and feel like its just going over small bumps. Under the deck is room to store everything. The Schiada sets the motor up and out of the boat more, while the Howard sets it down farther and is easier to cover up.
That's the type of info i'm looking for.. thanks

I've used my 20 spectra in the ocean all the time .Like the Howard it handles rough water very well. I've installed trim tabs to keep the bow down to part the waves rather than slam into it. We have a 26 mile crossing between vancouver and the island ,so the boat has to be able to take some beating .Just throw a lot of HP at it and it will perform. Hot boat featured Mike Avila's 20 with twin outboards ,claiming triple digits .Nuff said .

You can clearly see in this picture ,how much deeper a spectra 20 ,compared to others the same size

I don't know how the Rayson Craft compares with the Howard or Schiada, but I had a Spectra before. I loved my Spectra, it had a lot more room up under the bow. The Spectra took the rough stuff better, but the Rayson Craft is like driving a sports car in comparison. When I say rough, I mean a fleet of 30+ foot cruiser coming at you rough.
My Rayson Craft holds 5 adults, high speed well I couldn't tell ya because I am running a mild BBC N/A. I know they are being used for G/N racing and they push a 1000hp.
GoFast probably could help ya there.
