Any more picks of that seat? Looks real nice looking for something reversible for on top of my engines box. Do you know what it is?

I have been venturing out on some buddy boats lately and the more I do the more fond I grow of the CB23. Have been on 26 Sailfish, 28 Northcoast and 23 Parker recently in some 1-2ft chop or slightly more. I can hands down say the CB23 can do comparable speeds much more comfortably. 20-22kts in the chop without single pound and the added bonus of being completely dry behind the windshield. Almost everyone that climbs aboard comments on the ride quality and I think I had taken it for granted until getting back on to some other hulls.

Great shots. I see one pic in Hyannis Harbor….have you spent much time in the Sound? Curious how this hull does in the normal Sound slop.

Thank you. No lift rails, 200 Suzuki upgraded last season from a 135 Honda. The 200 is ideal, she runs 20-22 at 4600 rpm and 9 gph.
Thanks for that. I actually read a post on another site that the guy put rails on and had better efficiency but lost a lot of control and ended up taking them off.
