    Osprey or Vanquish Deep Vee ?

    Our house has a lake on one side where I run my Genesis, and calm ocean on the other side. I usually end up tipping my Genesis over in the ocean with just the smallest ripples. So I have been thinking about getting a largish Deep Vee hull for the ocean. I have been looking at 41 inch Osprey and Vanquish. Are these both the same boat (hull)? They look very similar.

    Any preferences or recommendations/comparisons regarding these two boats, guys?

    Cheers,

    Jon

    Deff go for the Osprey over the Vanquish, they are both the same hulls. The quality of the Osprey is better, Most of the Vanquish hulls have problems with a bad hook in the hull. So much so the hull just sticks to the water & runs very wet killing the speed, A few on this forum have tried the Vanquish & also found this problem & got rid of the boat only to buy an Osprey which ran totally different with the boat coming out of the water right up on the v where its suppose to be. These 2 hulls have been discussed a few times on this forum with the same conclusion.
