Yes as stated they do perform better when their HP  is maxed, however with a different pitch on the prop you can over come the holeshot deficiencies.  These boats are not riveted. And all components have been solid. I have owned since new in 2007, and have had zero issues.
Hull design? I think the hull design couldn,t be better for bigger water and aluminum design, Cuts well, with very little to no slap. No expert on hull design but the Legend boats are solid in their design.

Like I said not many if any come up for sale, and I strongly believe that is for good reasons.

Just my 2cents of course, but at that price it is deffinitly worth a look.

Good stuff, I'll keep Legend in mind when we start the shopping.

I've also started eyeballing the Hewescraft Open Fisherman 160 and the Lund Alaskan if I can find a used one cheap enough.

Buddy at work here just sold his dads 16' Alaskan in approx 20 minutes!!
I have always said that if I sold my Legend, I would buy an 18' Hewes Sportsman.
