John had more experience than me.
Basically, normal hull will cuts the water better resulting in smoother rides.
The more V the hull is (besides other things such as the length and weight of the boat) , the better on rough water condition.

Boston Whaler hull has evolved and now it's more deep vee than what is called
" Tri-hull " of the old model , the old Boston Whaler hull are rough riding in the waves but very stable for stationary casting or trolling .

So which Boston Whaler hull are you talking about , the pre '90 model or the post 2000 model ?

Beemaro ,

Boston Whaler anda sudah di modify bagian depan nya yah ? Menurut saya engine 40 hp agak under powered , Johan punya yang kalau tidak salah BW13/15 pakai Suzuki 4 stroke 60/70 hp , larinya ruaar biasa .

Saya ada hull BW17 Montouk tapi tidak dipakai saat ini , mungkin untuk freshwater fishing kalau sudah ketemu daerah yang bagus didekat Jakarta .

Jon .

Thks for yr advise.

1. I am not so sure kalo sudah dimodify didepan.

2. Seller's engine is 40hp 2 stoke Yamaha. Kata beliau, consumption abt 10litres per hour.

3. Saya lebih suka ke laut, maybe around Pulau Seribu area.

4. Actually, I prefer normal hull boats more.

Hi Pak Jon,

Thks. Its nice. How many feet is it ?

I saw the boston boat (earlier posted above), was advised that its not so good because the front/sides quite low.

In addition, I found out that the seribu outer islands is actually abt 70km off shore ! So, a small boat difficult unless want to play at Ayer etc

Hi Lee ,

Boston Whaler 17 Montouk is not for offshore works , mine is destined for reef / estuary / river / lake usage . If you want an offshore works I suggest you consider Boston Whaler 22 Outrage + 225 HP outboard with 15 hp " kicker " outboard or 2 x 115 HP outboards .

As for Pulau Seribu , sometimes there are confusions regarding " inner islands " such as P. Bidadari , P. Ayer , etc. and those " outer islands " such as P. Putri , etc. .If you are looking for clear water , those outer islands are still quite good .

Incidentally I know somebody who has a Boston Whaler 22 Outrage for sale , if you are interested , please p.m. me and I will get you to talk to the guy himself , he is a cousin of mine .
