Really nice Edgewater..I have the same boat here in So Cal. Good luck in the sale. You are correct in saying the boat rides much larger. If you don't mind me asking what prop size are you running on your boat. I am trying to figure out what the best prop is for my set up. Although I have a 225 HP Yamaha 4 stroke and am running a 15 1/4 x 19 three blade aluminum prop I am getting much worse fuel economy than you are. I am averaging 2MPG or less. I am trying to get a prop that is as efficient as your burn rate.

Anyone interested in these boats they are very nice riding and very stout in the ocean. My 22 feels like a 24 foot boat.

Thanks Matty

What are you looking to move up into? I have 2006 Parker 2510 and looking to trade for CC in the 21-23 range. May have some interest?

I love that transom set up, much more fishable than the standard euro or bracket set ups.
