Honwaves 3.5 or 3.8

Hi all, new on here but have watched for a while.

I am interested in the honwave for larking about and being in Teignmouth am dead close to the sea. I have been to see some Honwaves and i like the look of them in lots of ways. The only question is i dont know whether or not to go for a air v or the Ali floor.

I would be taking the boat fishing so a flat 'solid' floor would be better i guess but at 25kg heavier would it still perform with a 20hp 4stroke on the back??

When i am not fishing i would want it to perform so am in a dilema about which model to get.

Weight is not an issue as it will be trailered on my flatbed ifor williams

thanks all

Simon

ps what sort of speed could i expect from both the 3.5 ali or 3.8 air v???

I had a Honda T38 and I would say if you are going to fish the the ali floor is the one.

it has a Yam 20 hp 2 stroke - 2005 model with around 35 hrs from new.
I was going to sell the boat and engine seperately....
I don't fish...
and I never had the 4.0 m ally floor model !
Good luck with whatever you do.
