All I was originally getting at was that I have a BlackJack and I can comfortably fit 2-3 people on my deck at the same time

I will say though, Yellowfin owners typically have the largest decks. It also seems as though they don't have any problems finding people who are willing to get on their decks. Most of the time, all they simply have to do is ask.

I'm not sure of exact dimensions but it is the largest deck I have seen in person. Very solid too. I know some people who have boats with wood incorporated into the design, and they have complained about soft spots developing in their decks. If your deck isn't constructed of quality wood, then it tends to get soft and flimsy over time.

Getonfish, what are you seeing as far a speeds.. WOT and cruise and at what RPMs? Jack plate and trim tabs?

I'm looking at the 2104, blazer bay 2220 fisherman or pro, and a 2200 pure bay.

Those are all great boats. I am getting 50 WOT 3 adults loaded with gear and 35 @ 4000rpm same conditions. By myself I have seen 54 and closer to 40 at cruise.

I would not beleive this post if I hadn't been in the boat myself and witnessed it personally. Getonfish's rig is top-notch all the way. I still have people call me a liar when I tell them how fast that 175 pushes that Frontier. Turnaround is almost over!!!!! I'm ready to go get some fish. Ole lady cooked the last reds on the 1/2 shell last week. First time I've been outta reds since I got my bay boat.

Not sure how big the yellowfins deck is but its almost all deck space and very little floor space . I have fished out of one a few times and I still dont see that its worth the $$ they want for one .But to each his own .

Awesome rigs no doubt, but the price has doubled since they originally came out and I agree, not worth the price of a new one. I will say it is my favorite bay boat to fish out of though. The quality is second to none.

I sold my 2012 25LTZ a month or so ago. I couldn't get SW to call me back on anything, even minor questions. Poor customer service IMO.
