View Full Version : HydraSports
There's a CC listed nearby locally and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with them? Doesn't seem to be much storage, but seems like it's a good shell for a fishing/pleasure craft.
This one is 22'
I don't know anything about the smaller ones but I've been on a couple of bigger ones and was pretty impressed

Billybob 06-22-2017, 08:31 AM What year is it?
HS makes 2 models, the Seahorse series and the Vector series.
The Vectors are great hulls, deep deadrise, Kevlar reinforced, they are little battlewagons.
The Seahorse series are a basic price point mid tier boat.

This one is definitely the Sea Horse. After doing some comparisons it seems like this is a pretty no-frills boat and might not be as good a deal as I was hoping. There also seems to be quite a few mentions on THT that the seahorse is not a very stable boat when drift fishing in any chop. Given that I plan to do a fair amount of that from this boat, I'm gonna steer clear.

JFigliuolo 06-23-2017, 07:30 AM I dunno... Sometimes I wish I had more deadrise. I've got 16 deg at transom. It's a good compromise, stable at drift vs. smooth running in chop. But Narr. Bay late afternoon chop makes me wish i had a deeper V. Trim tabs help immensely... but when I see Reg's and other Deep V's cruising by me in the slop it makes me jealous. Pick your poison.
There is no perfect boat but some are closer than others... 27' conch

afterhours 06-23-2017, 05:01 PM back in the 90's I had a 2100 cc kevlar, 24 degree deep v with a 200 yami. fast, stable and well- bulletproof :).
bassballer 06-24-2017, 05:49 PM I like a solid deadrise on my boats for narraganset bay to block island. You'll welcome it in a stiff SW wind over tide. Ill sacrifice a stable drift for cutting through a head sea.
BTW saw a hydrasport in the harbor today with quad 7's!!!!!! drool factor was a 10.
So I ended up pulling the trigger on another Hydra-Sports last week... the long search is over... but the greenhorn questions are just beginning!

Fair winds and following seas.
Thanks guys, I'm gonna start a new thread for all the crappy questions I'm about to start asking :)
