You're spot on.... family isn't keen on piling in the center hull of an F boat.

I kind of like the practicality of the Maine Cat 30 with the hardtop. Ranger 30 looks much faster, but more spartan (less likely to be able to enjoy a weekend with the family - which usually means I won't be able to go... frown )

Okay, another question. If raking the mast works so well with beachcats, why don't they rake them back on bigger cats? I know Playstation was one with a nice mast rake, but all the 20-50 footers have a vertical mast with big roach main. Surely there may be a better setup?
