wish i could figuer out how to post pics

go to photobucket.com, open a free acct. Click upload pictures(there is a customize your uploads tab to make pics bigger). Find the picture in your hard drive. Once uploaded, you will see the direct link below. Move your mouse over the direct link filed. Once it says copied, make a post on this web site and click the image hyperlink. Delete the https in the open field and hit paste. That's it. Good luck. I want to see your boat.

The boat is an 88 with a mint 96 130 Yamaha. The weight / balance of the boat is impressive with that light motor and solid power of the V-4.

what pitch prop are you running and what is your top speed. i have a 19 right now but i want a 17 i think cause my boat is a dog out of the whole and i am only gettin 40.2 mph which is not bad i guess but i think a 17 will preform way better whats your opinoin

Nice looking ride. What year? I'm guessing a late 88 or most likely a 89. I'm pretty sure I have the 17. It's the original black painted
over stainless prop. It gets up quick and tops at around 38. It planes at about 12 mph, which is hard to do these days with brackets and heavy motors.

its a 1989 and i got it about 6 months ago i love it . cheap on gas and rides great for a 18 foot boat couldnt ask for a better boat. its all mint condition with like 360 somethin hours. i want a 150 yam but i love the 130 cause its so cheap on gas and has no hours on it and runs better than any new cheaply built over priced motor hahaha

It's all a trade off on power. The 130 is perfect for the 18. It's my 2nd 18 with a yamaha 130. I have family with an 18 with a 140Suzuki and used to have a 150 Johnson. The Tracker 18SF's are built well and are not as stern heavy as the 80-87 hulls. All are good boats.

ya i love mine i never get water in the back when drifting and that was my biggest fear befor i got the boat i really wanted a 20 but honestly i like how the 18sf are set up.i had it 19 miles off shore saturday just me and my giflfriend and felt compleatly safe its the biggest 18 you can get i think im way happy with it. i have also seen 2 exact boats so far at the ramp and they love them too. got to love a sea craft

Mods,
Slacker clean up aisle 12. Oh ,sorry Danny,you are one.

The 130 is perfect for that boat.
It`s all about the ride.
