Default V20 Vs. Bertram 20

I love looking at classic boats and love to compare the pros and cons of each.

After owning many boats, my V20 gives me a lot of versatility and excellent fuel economy (470 I/O)

Usually, the trade off with deep V boats is the ride in rough seas but poor at drift. I found my V20 to be excellent ride (with trim tabs) and excellent at drift.

I was wondering if any one can compare the ride of a Bertram 20 with the V20? Bertrams have an excellent reputation for build quality but I am not concerned with that. My V20 was stripped down to the stringers and rebuilt rock solid with all new wiring.

I would thing the Bertram would not do as well at drift and would offer a comparable ride to a V20 with trim tabs.

Any input?
