Bullhead Bully does...

I have a twin OB 22 and I also had the first new 22 out of the mold with a 525 in it. The boat is unbelievable in all conditions under 4-5 foot chop i could go on and on about but it is just easier if you PM me your Number and i will call you and answer all of your questions.

Wow that is a tough call they are both SOO much fun , If you want something a littlle more mild go with the 525 at just under a 100 mph.If you need a little more wild go with the twins at just under 120 mph. Fuel useage is almost the same the twins are a little more efficent at about 3-4 mpg,the IO will get 2.4-2.6 mpg. I hope this helps.

Just out of curiosity...What is the price difference between the twins and the 525? I assume the twin 300XS setup is in the $125k range?

I get into 4 foot chop I don't go looking for it in my 22 when I am in the 28 I go looking for it . But to answer your coment the bottom on the NEW 22 is very deep and does suprising well in the the slop,I love poaching Havasu Poker runs and getting the looks when I pass 30 footers in crap water . The boat just works very well. It suprises alot of people.

We're you surprised when that all white/black Mach 22 with twins put a whoopin' on you in Havasu a while back? That was my buddy...he said you were quite surprised!
