So in regards to the Shiada, I assuming most are V-drives or I/O’s?

which ones work better/have advantages?

Let's see a photo of said countless hours Rayson you drove/rode in, just so we all know it was a hitter and not your average family putt putt. 👍 😊

You've seen it. Wheeler has tons of pics of it, as it Still lives over by his place.

Back in those days, there were no phones, but I do have some negative scans buried somewhere.

I'll drop Everything in doing, right now, just for you.

Not!

🙄😘🤣

I have the member of the Schiada family that no one will claim the RT. I love the way it rides and it's a blast to drive. My Dad and Uncle have Hallett 210's and both will gladly ride with me on a rough water day and it will run off from them at speed.

There is a V drive Rayson Craft a few doors down that wants to mix it up when I get my boat back from the shop. I'll report back how we do.

You dropped everything to post a response -Mr. Retired guy. Let’s see the pics when you have a spare weekend or whatever you need. 😂

Ok, so you have nothing. Got it. Get back to your mid day nap. Lol

Speaking of dropping things...

My last post, I was dropping the kids off at the pool. That's probably why I was thinking about you. ❤️

Done with lunch and gonna go work on my Harley now. I suppose you want pics of that too?

🤣

I’ve owned a few Schiada’s, ridden in a bunch more and owned arguably the best handling and Brummett rigged 21 Vector V Drive w/ 1000 HP and a delta pad

That boat was great in the late afternoon with a wind chop, took a great set with the plates flying free that being said; boat for boat all day the Schiada is a more comfortable and much drier ride and I believe would out handle the Vector across the board. - I’ll have a better answer for this very soon 😉

Our friend had a Shiada for many years that looked just like that with the words "Step n Pro" on the deck. Twin turbo BB with a trans. Lots of fun to drive.

I currently have a Howard 21ft v-drive. I think a 21ft Spectra copy. I can't remember how much different they are to drive since it's been a while with the Shiada. Anyone?
