Boat rides great like Regulator's are known for. Boat cruises at 33mph tops out around 44 mph. Motors are fuel efficient as they can come for this size craft.

Hope all is going well for you. I saw you had the Hydra Sports for sale, did the boat sale? As for this boat she is a great ride, but I just don't have the time with my job to use it as I would like to, so she must go. I think it will sale pretty quick. I am getting some good feed back calls from T.H.T. readers. Take care...
Have to give you a bump since your from my home town...Kecoughtan High School class of '96. What power was on the boat originally?
This one's gonna sell quick, it's priced right. Good luck.

I am not really sure what the original motors were, since I purchased the boat used from a boat broker in SC. More than likely it had two 150 two stokes on the back, but that is a assumption on my part.
If this gorgeous package does not sell real fast, we are all screwed by this economy. Great boat, great 4-strokes, very reasonably priced. Good luck with sale.
Don't worry your not the only one trying to sale your contender to get this one. Talked with a guy yesterday and he said the same thing about his 21 contender. Good luck in your sale.....
Oh no thor don't take this as a dump on Contender. I have owned several boats and by far the Contender is the best FISHING layout I have ever been on.
My wife say's I am crazy. Every couple of years I sell the boat I just took so long getting set up for me, and buy anouther to start all over on. But hey it's cheaper than trading wives.

Beautiful boat Thor !! I own a 2001 with twin 150 HPDIs and can honestly say that I LOVE the boat , regularly fishing 80 miles offshore.
SeaDaniels , this is a great engine combo for this hull , and will plane almost instantly with no use of the tabs.
This is one of the best deals going on what is one of the best 23 foot boats made.
