Similar speed with HO's... Around 80.
Room goes to the Vyper, not taking anything from the revenge bc they have a ton of room for a 30' boat and the V birth actually is a tad longer in the revenge.
I would prefer k-planes bc i run Lk MI and Lk Erie sometimes and i cant imagine getting caught out there without them when it kicks up...
I dont have an enclosed head but man they are nice, im sure once u have one you dont go back.
Its really a toss up, i hear the 300 handles better, and its also the only twin step hull PQ made that was designed to be a twin step hull... The others (vyper/avenger) were straight hulls that had steps added later on. Not sure if it makes any difference, just food for thought.
PQ is a great boat, especially the two you are considering, i wouldnt hesitate to own another... And may eventually end up in a 380 who knows

I can't talk much about the differences between the 340 and 300, but I can talk about 380's to 300. The 380 is just a few feet longer than the 340 but basically the same. The stand up head is the best thing going for it. my next boat will have one. I would not own a 300 without k-planes, this last weekend we were in some pretty confused waters in the Bay of Green Bay, the 300 was coming up about 4 feet short on all the waves and we were taking a pretty good pounding, slowed down a little dropped the planes all was good. The 300 with HO's I think will be faster by a few MPH. My 300 with HO's is faster than a 380 with 500EFI's, by a few MPH. Always nice to be the fastest boat in the group, you only have to show them once or twice and they don't give you chit anymore. 292 formula's are my favorite, they act all surprised
. I think the 340 would have the advantage in the rough, but I have been in some pretty rough stuff and not worried, this last weekend was the first time I did like the feel and what I was seeing. Like I said the water was really confused, it would be broad side, then head on, other side etc. short wave length then long just nothing consistent to deal with.

I'll tell you there is no replacement for displacement and that is meant for both size and power!!
If your pondering the two I would go for the 340. The head is a nice feature with a porcelain toilet, hot shower, the air is nice when its 90 degrees out, and the room in the cuddy......well that's another story!!
The 300 would probably feel like a hotrod no doubt.....until a 525 efi Avenger goes by it .........but that's another story as well.....
