| I have had a senator 620 and a Stabi 609, same size as the 2050 I think but older hull. The senator was a better boat and bigger. Senator rode much better. Also had a Stabi 2400 which was a nice boat but quite a bit bigger than the 2050, not really a comparison. |

Hey Dean / Pompey how do reckon those pontoon boats go versus your old bluefin (the original ones)? I thought that was nice boat when went on it. I am a long time stabi fan (own a 16 ft one and often consider trading up) but if looking at those 2 brands of boats, (Senator and Stabi) you should also be considering Profile as the finish on ones I’ve seen is very impressive. Best welding and ride of hulll is what you want to be looking for if holding any of these boats long term. On that criteria I am not sure which is best between stabi, kiwi, profile, ospery and senator. And I think about it a lot and closely inspect as many boats as I can. They all look really good. ;-) Be happy with any one of those brands over 6m with a decent Japanese four stroke outboard of at least 150hp.
