I don't think my 18' Hawaiian is too different from that boat. One thing I didn't know to look for is a soft floor. Esp under the driver's seat. I had to replace the floor not long after buying mine (I'd have still bought it but it's a good thing to check). I also have a 460 but it's coupled to a Berk. I now like the 460. I was really a chevy guy before getting this boat, but the 460 has proved to be a good motor. My 460 is pretty strong and very tight (there are photos & specs on my website: http://www.rivertoys.com/gallery/1976H.html). I get very good performance out of it. It's run 68 on GPS in less than ideal conditions. Hope that helps a bit. http://www.goldenplasma.f2s.com/foru...es/happy45.gif Jason
