Default Re: Seafari Stern

Thank you everybody for your input.
I see a few of you go out into the Gulf of Maine/ out of MA.
So, apparently the Seafaris handle the ocean well. I think I told you guys that I live in Maine, but I am moving back down to Miami. With my 23CC I used to fish a great deal, but, now I'm more concerned about making the boat seaworthy.
I plan on going offshore/Bahamas/Dry Tortugas etc. (not that the two are mutually exclusive) I will mostly be diving.
So some of you mentioned that the 115 was sufficient? (as I said, I do not care about speed, but reliability, and economy) So, I think then I will consider the V4 130. That sounds like plenty. Do any of you have a 4 stroke V4? Are they truly more reliable than the 2s? These all seem like idiotic questions but I have been in Maine for 5yrs now, and have not even thought about all this since. I'm totally psyched to restore my boat. Since everyone has said that the 235 is relatively light, Im trying to figure out why the guy filled in the scuppers.
Thanks everyone
