I've had a Glacier Bay and I'll stay with my Sea Vee. I could not get use to the snap of the roll on a cat boat.

As far as contender, I would get a 3 year old Sea Vee before I would get a new contender.

Just my opinion.

Just because you've ridden on one cat don't mean they are all the same. No more than v-hulls are all the same.

There are some cats that don't have the udesirable handling as seen in others.

I had 2 Captains in Venice LA who owned a Glacier Bay ride on my Ameracat in Venice. The feedback was amazing. I couldn't do that in my boat I heard allot. There is a cat boat that rides like its suppose to.You don't have to touch the steering wheel coming in on a following sea.No snap and roll.I haven't rode in all cats and I am not saying Ameracat is the only boat that rides right in the cat market.You can't judge all cats by riding on one brand.
