The only drawback is speed you will not be able to keep up with the outboards I plane around 15 kts and wot around 32 kts.
Speed isn't the most important thing to me. I'd rather be comfortable than be getting knocked around. So far, sounds like the Sceptre configuration is a winner. Thanks for your info.
