Honestly, the FX HO's were/are plenty of power for me. I care more about long distance cruising than toying around usually, and don't need a supercharger grenading on me if I'm in the bahamas or something. Not likely I know, but it's just added risk for something I didn't/don't really need. Not to mention, I favored the color scheme on these.

I can understand that. It is nice to only need 87 octane too. FX are awesome cruising crafts. I would have to say my VXR was probably my favorite machine ever to ride alone. Slow, but the hull handles awesome and the power was enough to be fun. I probably should have kept that ski.
So it looks like you already replaced the Seadoo boat?
Lol, yeah. Old post. . It's now 5 boats in 4 yrs? Lol. Sold the doo and bought a Boston Whaler conquest. Sold that and bought an FSH. It's for sale now, and it looks like I might be about to order a new Sea Hunt. Still on the fence.
How do you like the FSH? I love the center console boats, but don't fish and worried it wouldn't be as family friendly.
I agree. VXR should have cruiser or put trim on VX Cruiser HO.
I am debating what to do with my ski situation. I should really sell both and get a GP1800. I also wouldn't be surprised if I upgrade to a 212 at some point in the next year or two if the family loves the boat.
