inboard right for me?

[jesusv]

hey guys looking for some opinions. bought my first seacraft a few months ago its a '77 23 inboard. loved the idea of the inboard(nothing hanging in back plus i would be able to work on engine myself) from reading through other post begining to believe it might not be practical for my use. live in south florida. my use wil be 50/50 fish and sandbar with the wife and kids. the boat needs some work before i can take it out (which i look forward to doing) but dont wasnt to invest my time and regret not using that time on something i can keep. from your expirience is and inboard not going to be practical for me to take out with the wife and baby? i will be trailering the boat.i can always try to trade it or sell before i get too deep into it. thanks
