    My work boat is a 19' Whaler with an 80 hp that hauls ass. The thing is literally stern heavy and is prone to sinking. I have no GPS, but it is easily capable of going more than fast enough.

    As for my whitewater kayak, depends how far I am falling ;)

    Wrong! They handle phenomenal! A good friend of mine had a Champion Bass boat that handled way better than his previous Ranger, he sold it and got the Stroker....not even in the same class, until you drive or ride in one, it's hard to say...well, I've ridden in all three! Now you know. Don't get me wrong Rangers are awesome boats, but not in the same class as a Stroker or a Champion IMO!

    I should say they all handle better than my Baja in rough water!
