I'm having the power debate with myself (and dealers) right now.
I'm gonna pick up a 17 footer. Key West and Scout are at the top of the list, along with Sea Hunt and a couple others. Here's the question.
Do I stick with the standard 90 HP, or spend the 2 extra grand or whatever and go up to 115? This is my first boat, and I don't need a bullet, but I also don't want to be sluggish with a full load.
Also, most importantly: What's your favorite 17 CC? I want a fishing machine. I'd like to stay with a new model. 25 grand is the absolutely max I can spend for a package, and realistically it's closer to 20.
All ideas would be greatly appreciated.
