Hi,

That should be an awesome hull/motor combination! The boat had a 225 optimax on it before and had good speed/efficiency, the 250 will be better. I was definitely going to add curtains this year if I kept it even though it is definitely dry when you keep the bow up. Those pumps did not work last year(everything was winterized though, the in floor live well could pump water out but not in--one thing I would recommend for the in floor livewell is to add some sort of rubber seal or something because rainwater or anywater on the deck goes into the livewell though that hatch so it does fill up. Definitely ask any more questions, and be sure to post some pics of it when you complete everything, I want to see the improvements!
