Re: 09 Tahoes?
OK folks, I have been researching and researching many new makes and models in the 19-23 foot range and have come to the conclusion that Tahoe's aren't much better than Bayliners. Yes, they look nice and sell for reasonable prices, but if money was no object, Crownline or Sea Ray would be the way to go for bow riders. I've personally piloted new Larsons, Crownlines, Ebbtides, Bayliners, Sea Rays, and Tahoes over the past fews months and the boat that satisfies most my needs is Four Winns, more specifically, the H220 Frenzy Edition. Sure, it costs more than the Tahoe's and Bayliner's but the quality and reliability make up for it, not including a better warranty. The Larson 226 Senza was pretty good too but we like the Four Winns a little better. Go thru and read owner comments on Bayliners and Tahoes then head over to the Four Winns and Larson forums. You'll find very few negative comments on the Four Winns/Larsons but you'll find plenty of positive AND negative comments on the Tahoes and Bayliners.
I'm not trying to disuade the purchase of a new Tahoe, because I have never owned one, but for a little more money, you'll get a better boat if you shop around.
Best of luck!
