Default Re: 18' seacraft help

I have to agree with Vcsjupiter, I Have an 18 (Snookered's boat) and the ride is great and the only time it is wet is in a quatering sea 3' or more. This an be handeled with boat handling and adjusting speed a bit. Mine is powered with a Yamaha 2 smoke.
There was a discussion on this board, ( just looked and couldn't find it but it is probably still here) and I believe Carl Mosley said that "an 18 will do everything a 20 will do" my quotes but you can get the idea.
As long as i'm wasting time at work doing this, which is very important, I have a question for Vcsjupiter. Im slowly restoring my 18 and would love to put a Hermco bracket on it but would like a little insight as to performance before I take the plunge. My plan is to keep the Yamaha 130 since I bought 3 of them. A guy had triples on a older Mako 25 and was repowering with Opti bombs. with 3 motors in good shape, 2 in storage, hopefully I will have power until my boating days are past, which hopefully doesn't come anytime soon.
