Meaux, the only negative is the high gunnels which catch the wind making it a fast drift boat...and I'm leaning toward the 2 stroke version hence the Etec

Cheif, just took the boat to have minor gel coat blemishes re-finished; hull checked out great....
I'm skeptical of buying used....unless its a dealer demo type of boat.
