big orange is spot on in going to demo both and your family will come to the decision which one feels better. as you do tho ignore the sales pitch and pay attention to options included, how much plastic is in each boat, feel of not only the vinyl but the foam underneath, fit and finish of the panels, are the seams straight. overall feel of the quality of the boat. visit the service bay of each dealer and which one feels better. sales is a 1 time visit. service is where you will be spending your time after the sale. make sure you get a good feeling.

both companies sell a lot of boats each year and since you are asking on a moomba forum you know the opinions here will be toward that line. there are just as many on here that have demo'ed both and in a moomba as there are that have demo'ed both and are in an nxt.

fwiw my monies given the 2 would be moomba every time. in the value boat segment moomba has some solid boats....
