Hurricane 260 - Anybody own one?

[Sandbar8]

I'm considering buying a 2004 Hurricane 260 with twin Honda 130's. Does anybody own one or have experience with the 260? Did the boat have a comfortable ride? Did the layout of the helm make the bow feel cutoff from the passengers in the back of the boat.

We mainly use our current deckboat as a party-barge on the back bays. Also do some crabbing, or drop anchor in shallow water where we can hangout in the water.

I love the 260 for it's size and the twin engines, but I'm concerned that the layout will cut-off the front passengers from the ones in the back.

Sounds like an awesome boat. However, I don't think Hurricanes are particularly known for their ride quality.

As can be said for most deck boats.
As for the layout...I'm not sure what layout doesn't cut off the front from the back somewhat.
It's not much of an issue in our Starcraft 2415 which has a similar layout.
