Are Scorpions considered performance boats
I saw a 39' Scorpion the other day that looked very much like a Stinger. Was the Scorpion line considered a performance boat?

actually i always call it the "bottom of the food chain performance boat". funny thing is at just about every poker run i have had it in i generally run right about the middle of the pack. sure im at my max cruise speed doing it but what the heck . . as long as im doing it
not sure i would clasify the 260's as an offshore boat but more like a sport boat or somthing like that. the biger ones though, like the 31 an up, seem like the fit the description

Re: Are Scorpions considered performance boats
I have a 375 Stinger,,,I'd call it a "performance cruiser". I doubt it could ever see 70 mph no matter how much power it has. BUT..60 aint so bad, considering I have air,, shower, galley,, lcd tv,,,all the comforts of home, and it just crushes 4 and 5 footers in the Chessapeake Bay and Delaware Bay. When I think performance class,, i think Fountain,, Skater,,,Cig,,,Sunsation,,etc.
