if your going offshore, the cuddy wins hands down, i used to fish a 233 Formula cuddy, we ran 6 lines( sometimes 8 on a calm day) and two teasers off the riggers( big riggers for a 23), even though the boat was an I/O we still had plenty of room for three guys to handle the lines and drink, i mean fish. I fished a 23( actually bigger than the Formula) SeaCraft center console later in the year, it was rough so no one got in front of the console, we didn't have near the room that the Formula gave us, we had a mess handling the lines. If it is flat or spread out waves on a regular basis( like in Fl), you can take advantage of the center consoles room, but if its rough, or cold and short chop( form here up the coast), everone ends up behind the console and in the way of the capt.
