I think the 150 e-tec is a great choice. I just hope it's enough motor. My girls are still young so the way off shore thing will have to wait a while. I'm sure most of the time this boat will see some cruising and maybe pull the girls around on a tube or something.
Working 12 hour days the last few I haven't had any time to play. However today was only 10. So I bought a saws all and got to work. Did I mention I hate fiberglass!
Thanks again to all of you.
