Mild power is better for resale if you care about things like that. Ask any broker how hard it is to sell a boat with monster engines.

but if you keep a boat very long, then it is going to need new paint and interior eventually too. if i had extra money id keep it :D

Well 1000hp per side being mild is news to me! :D

But, bottom line I would absolutely, positively, without a doubt choose a sleeper. BIG power and bare minimum everything else.

Spend every penny on the power first and do the rest later. You can never get enough hp and speed.

If you are a very hard working stiff, with limited resources for use on this depreciating asset hobby.

Would you choose mild power with tricked out interior/paint/rigging.

Or

Function, bare or minimum graphics/interior with plane functional rigging, with massive, unbelievable driveline.

keep in mind for the purposes of this poll, you can not have both.

I vote go. Show is flashy but overrated. Go will make a lasting impression.
