All in all- can you say game changer when it comes to this boat. I mean OBs great efficiency easy on fuel, insurance cost low. Plus this thing will go through anything. My good buddy Tony at DCB told me that Mike from Mercury said this thing handles unreal, went through 3-4s like they weren't there. Then you factor in it runs 98 with 6 peeps full of fuel. Wow I think Pete should sell a few of these.

coming from a guy that will most likely never ever EVER own a beauty such as this fine 318, the only thing that WOULD have "bugged" me (see what i did there) would be getting passed by 28's in smooth water. looks like that problem is now geting solved ha
