I pulled the trigger on a 24" Berkshire 231 STS RCF. The fishing set up in the stern sold me. It's the best design I've seen for both fishing and pleasure. We also upgraded from the 90HP to the 115HP. According to the guys at Irwin I should be able to get to 30 MPH with 2-3 people on board easy. They even said maybe the mid 30's but I'm skeptical. Anyway, high 20's is all I wanted so I'm happy. I too was a member of American Boat Club last year and the way those pontoon boats held up was very impressive. As a side note I can't say enough about Irwin Marine. So far, not done yet with everything, but so far Raj and Bill Irwin have been OUTSTANDING to work with.
