I currently own a beautiful Howard 28 Bullet Mid Cabin Open Bow with a Mercury 525 and the XR drive along with all the extras that comes standard with this package from Howard.
I have owned many boats in the past but by far this one is the nicest along with being the best quality that I have ever owned. This has always been my dream boat and it has been an awesome boat, but now my boating has changed since I have become older and now I am looking at possibly a deck boat that has the easy entry from the water to the rear of the boat
and a walk off in the front when I occasionally pull up to a sandy beach. I really like the Howard products since having owned one so I was wondering if anyone has any input on the
ride difference between these 2 Howards 288 Sportdeck versus the 28 SDS Sportdeck. I like the hidden Bimini top feature in the 288 but I am very curious if one rides better in choppy
water than the other ? Both boats to me are very nice but I have to be certain which one would be better for my boating needs, before I sell mine take the plunge break the bank and
order a new one. Also I just heard a little about Nordic's 26 foot Deck Boat last week saw it on line looks great has both rear and front entry and is what I need. I was also told that 26 foot
Nordic rides as well as Howards 288 or 28 SDS. Does anybody know how that boat rides compared to the 2 Howards ? I wonder what Gene and Mike Willen would say about that statement ?
