Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Custom Weld Ram Drop Nose Series 2011 vs Custom Weld White Water Special (22 - 24 ft.) 2010 — A Close Look at Two Modified Vees
When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Custom Weld Ram Drop Nose Series 2011 and the Custom Weld White Water Special (22 - 24 ft.) 2010 are modified vee designs with aluminum construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
The Custom Weld White Water Special (22 - 24 ft.) 2010 tops out at 390 hp. Engine specs for the Custom Weld Ram Drop Nose Series 2011 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Custom Weld Ram Drop Nose Series 2011 is rated for 13 passengers, while the Custom Weld White Water Special (22 - 24 ft.) 2010 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Custom Weld Ram Drop Nose Series 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Custom Weld Ram Drop Nose Series 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 13 passengers and at 21,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Custom Weld White Water Special (22 - 24 ft.) 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
