diveorfish	posted 08-24-2006 07:02 PM ET (US)             Over the past few months I have been suffering from that dreaded 2 foot disease. I went to my local dealer and checked the 255 Conquest. It seems to be a nice boat. I was curious on how it rides in rough water. The hull seems to be a generation back from the new crop of Whalers i.e. the 285 and the 305 Conquests. Also, my dealer thinks that twin 150s are a good match. Is that enough power for this boat? Is it enough cabin for two to overnight in with some comfort?
