Demoed a new '19 Supra SE late last summer. I liked the looks, and features. The wave was ok, but not as good as the other 3 boats I demoed. The biggest thing that kicked it out of the running for me, was the handling, ESPECIALLY the low speed, loaded handling.
I don't understand how Supra doesn't realize that they cant just double the weight of their boats without making drastic changes to the driveline and steering systems. The Ri257 was a similar experience, but not as bad (which is funny, considering how much bigger the 257 is).
Supra and Centurion both need to upgrade to 2:1 gearboxes, 17-18" propellers, and a 17-19" rudder. The old SE was fairly lethargic already, but the new one is much worse, because of the additional weight.
