I have a 22'Seahawk with a 200 hp Yammy, I run it offshore and feel very safe. They do ride very nice for a flatter hull boat. 80 gallons of fuel gives me great range, about 300 miles. Top speed is around 42mph, loaded. The pod on the back is very bouyant and with a shallow bow it looks a little nose heavy but the ride is awesome,the suspension seats are great you can buck a chop all day with no worries.I had double scuppers put in the bow,you can take a big gulp and it dumps it pretty quick,although I have been in some big seas I have never had any major water over the bow, and with the 200 its tons of power. I also had the aluminum floor put in, I am just not a fan of having duradeck stuck to plywood for my floor. It would be nice if the hull was a little deeper so you could have a flush deck,everything ends up in the bilge.Overall the boats are good value for the dollar!
