It is more to tow and store but, it pays off when you are out on the water.With a 23 Outage, you get all the stuff that makes a Whaler a Whaler such as unsinkability, stability and durability. Plus you also get ample seating/fishing room for 6, a 30 gallon built-in livewell and an enclosed head for the fairer crew members. You also get a huge 166 gallon fuel tank so running out of gas is never a concern. Best of all you get a very smooth, very dry ride in the rough stuff. In fact, the ride is the best feature of the 23 hull which includes 23 Conquests as well. You can pretty much go anywhere you want with impunity.
Also, for what it's worth, people are constantly drooling over the boat at the launch ramp and on the road. Believe it or not, it’s even a “chick magnet” if you can take advantage of such benifits. No, you can’t go wrong with a 23 Outrage.
