    I stepped up from a 89 Carrera 20.5 Jet.
    I know own a 2000 24' Stiletto, I love it! Lots of room rides great.
    Watch out when turning though, like a cat they turn flat but it likes to hook the outside sponson.
    Keep your speed down when you make your turns.
    It defenitly is not a V bottom in regards to turning....
    Other than that mine loves throttle a little trim and a bit of chop.

    Its an easy boat to control and get the hang of. THere is nothing to know other than to find the sweet spot w/ trim.. Its very responsive to trim with even a single click. One waning is not to get over confident in this boat in heavy chop beacuse they can get loose. I saw around 70MPH in my cheetah when I had it. It was very secure and fun boat. Ya just have to know your limits and thats with any watercraft.

    On my way to havasu right now to pick up my new cheetah 24' fastcat deck boat. I will be going from a 27' vee to a cat so it will be a new one for me also...........

    I picked up my 24 in february and i love it,but finding the trim sweet spot is key.Trim up too much and hit a wake and you'll be seeing some sky,and trim down too much in chop and you'll bury the bow.
