I looked at the Crownline E series boats last fall. Initially I was looking at the Crownline and Four Winns Funship. I ended up switching gears a little bit and narrowing it down to a Searay Sundeck and Chapparal Sunesta becasue of the reasons expressed above (deadrise). The Searay Sundeck's were nice but ultimitly the Chap people at Fayes boatyard in Gilford were Awesome to work with and I feel like I got a great deal on a boat that would perform well on a big lake and looked good (the latter being the most important of course).
The Sunesta 244 has a deadrise of 20 degrees and weights in at 4,400. It also has the same style rear seat as the Crownline. Good Luck with your search!
