Here's some "before" pic of the transom. Cropped kind of tight, but you can see everything is well above water line. I will get some after shots with a wider angle view...
The trade off with the 18 is the deck is very low, basically at the water line. The positive of this is that the 20" transom leaves about as much above the water line as a 25" transom does on many bigger boats. If I had a 20, 21, 23 or larger I would definitely raise or enclose the transom.
