[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 268319, member: 5461"] They are as stable and draft about the same amount of water ... after all, the majority of the bottom is still flat. The slight V on the bow does help a little with choppy water, but not a lot, and not nearly like a true V-hull. A mod-v running in choppy water will still beat you up pretty bad. A decent amount of manufacturers tend to build their mod-v's out of thicker aluminum than the flat fronts - so if you are looking in the used market, there is a good chance mod-vs will be thicker and heavier .... you may or may not like that.
