 a boat that will turn looking for a boat that will turn. all I have ever owned is a gt extremes. been looking at the excel f4.. they got some pretty impressive videos on you tube. just don't want to sacrifice being able to take off in shallow water for being able to turn. but that just maybe the case.. what yall think

Re: a boat that will turn My tapered chine boat turns really well. The round chine turns the best. I prefer the way the tapered chine drafts compared to the round chine.

Re: a boat that will turn Spoon, my Prodigy turns very well, comparable to a gtrax boat or better. Very satisfied with performance and build quality!

Re: a boat that will turn Round chine or skinny .... my 1840 square turns on a dime..... but I don't do much sharp turning in deep water.....shallow water, all boats slide no matter what chine......
