This is a review of the Maximum Velocity, which is a Velocity with 2 bulkheads, adjustable foot rests, padded back rest, and skeg. Definitly one of the best boats in its price range, with fairly good tracking and good stability. It's not a very fast boat, but with its light and rigid plastic, it can probably compare with a plastic 15 footer (this needs to be verified). The drop-down skeg is great in rough conditions, and given the boats rocker, you can still turn easily even with the skeg down. The main drawback is that the deck in front of the cockpit is a bit bulky and sometimes gets in the way. Overall, this fun boat is excellent value. |
