I’ve had a high tide and have a falcon. The high tide was more versatile for fishing and cruising. I mainly use my falcon for hunting. I do bass fish out of it a little, but you’re limited because it’s not fun in rough water. I have sunk it 3-4 times in the last 15 years I’ve had it.

What he said^^ Fast Craft is meant for calm water and big motors. High Tide will handle the rough water a little better.

The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

Similar design.
Fast craft will be lighter. Thus, faster.
Both are meant for the river, but can be used just about anywhere on the right day.
Both are nice rigs in the small class.

Can’t speak to a fast craft but a high tide will roll on it side if you hit a wake or wave wrong while running. Just an FYI
