Again - NICE boat, I'm in love I know the dual hulls/catamaran style is better for stability in rougher waters. Are they a little harder to steer and drive in normal conditions b/c of 2 hulls?

Another reason I'm really leaning towards the Mako is b/c of the cuddy cabin w/ the family, they can retreat and I think this boat would make a nice compromise between what they want and what I want. I want pretty much straight fishing, they want something to go out on and relax, and w/ the cabin down below, we can have a/c and they can relax when the going gets too hot for them while I sit above and man all the rods w/ the rockfish coming in

The World Cat has a nice 28' cuddy, but I can't afford it, plus towing will be harder, and since I want to trailer my boat to the bay/ocean, I'm thinking ~ 26' is where I want to be... Who knows, I'm still in the research phase so my thinking may change over time.

Oh yeah, sorry for all the questions!
