I like my extreme, its plenty fast enough, it distributes the weight pretty well. and with the drop in bait tank, no space is wasted and its easy to reach behind and grab a live one. No problems with water leanking on the rear hatch, only had problems with it on the xfactor... keep the hatch lid on the bait tank while your fishing. no water splashes or falls on the rim.

I feel more stable in the extreme than i did in a Prowler Big Game, The extreme you sit down deeper in it. much more stable dispite the width differance

youll have some water in the footwells, half a centemeter deep or so with the bait tank full on a 12 volt system. but not much, it punches threw waves well with someone my size in it, so you will get wet. but its a wet sport. well worth it.

The cobra fish n dive is much slower than the X-factor, but Bellcon told me, Balance can be learned, speed you have to buy. I wouldnt buy the x-factor if your looking for something much faster tha the cobra.

ok thanks for all the info extreme it is but i will always remember the fish&dive its just time to speed things up a bit
