Default The Comparison...

The hull speed is misleading. I drive a 102' boat and hull speed is 10 or
so, (66' waterline). It's theoretical anyway. The Bennie would right
itself but not nearly as quickly as the Nordica. The comfort numbers are
interesting. I wonder what the AVS is for the Bennie? I bet its around
120, pretty low. That means it would have to roll 60 degrees before it
wanted to come back up!
The Bennie looks like it would be the quicker of the two but the Nordica
sure has it on seakeeping.


Without a doubt Gary... but the object when discussing boats with Bob is
just "long cocking" at the bar..... and he's a shrimp dick! :-)
