I am in the same “boat” as you currently. Looking for a river boat. Have a Bayliner 175 currently that I will get rid of to buy the jet boat. With friends having both the two stroke and 4 stroke motors, I agree that getting the 350 or 383 is a better idea than the 2 stroke.
On degree of hull, you will never get the perfect set up for both lake and river. It’s going to be a compromise. I think going 12 degree is probably the best you can do. I will be boating mainly the Peace and Slave Lake. I am not sure how skinny I will be able to go with a 12 degree.
Same $ amount as well. I want to spend no more than $40k
