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.

Prolly but its all good

Danny next time out there, checkout the inside North, next to the pilings about a 1/4m south of the North tip - great bar to hang out on and no surf.

Too much Acetone from the De-Slackerization process. It causes permanent damage.

Are you bringing the 18 over? Any performance numbers yet?

Snookerd · #19 03-30-2011, 11:08 PM

Sandy- yes, I plan on bringing the 18. I have to get rid of the rollers on the front of the trailer and put bunks in their place. I just ran a full tank from the prior owner. So the #'s will be coming, The boat runs well.
