Default Size?

I opt for FOURWINNS (personal experience). Never road in a Crownline.

I would say 20-23' is plenty.

Size is not that important as long as you know how to use the handle to your right (throttle). Perhaps if you want to cruse at 40+mph you need a huge boat. We have 19ft FOURWINNS and it is just fine out in the lake just take it easy. I have gone on rides on the jetski and it is fine as long as the speed is moderated. We used to take our 15' Starcraft up to Burger King or Wendy's from Alton Bay and lived to tell about it. Ah to be young and foolish instead of old and foolish.

I don't recall any pictures of boats that have flipped being of the small runabout size only big boats. Correct me if I am wrong.
