No way...Regulators rock! 129K is painful but not that bad. I need to take my wife to the boatshow this winter (with the check book in hand).
I would take a 26 reg vs a mako anyday...surfhunter are nice but different style of boat and are slightly over priced for what you get. (they don't give regs away but they are awesome in a sea...go for a ride in a 3-4' chop.
That CC and tackle stoage on the Reg is amazing...SC is s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g hind tit behind them if you ask me. Contendors are also nice but I like the lines and flare of the regulators.
As much as I would like the 31-33 CC with triples...I think that is over the top. First, a 32'er is a big boat and needs some real power that outboards can't produce. You just can't keep bolting on more outboards (with small props) to get it. As much as I like the hydrosport 33 with triples (or any of the others) the performance and fuel consumption is kinda poor IMO. That boat would be better off with twin 440 yanmars and a full transom..buyt then you would end up looking like the new egg harbor express.
If you want to go fast and don't give a damn about fuel...contact the guys at OutterLimits in Bristol...they make a sweet 51'er that hits 130. I bet they can customize it into the ultimate CC...Imagine fishing the canyon in 45min!!
