If money is a consideration, check out Harris at Melvin Village--we, and I know Greene's Basin Girl, love ours.

I don't have strakes on my tritoon (25' with 130hp) and it doesn't plow. It planes up nicely with the front third of the toons out of the water when trimmed properly. The strakes will get you up quicker and likely at a lower speed, but by the same token, I've never pounded the waves either. All a preference.
