Hello all
I have been given the opportunity to purchase an Aquafish 23 at a reasonable price but its fitter with a Volvo Panta D3-130.
All of the Aquafish 23 I have seen advertised are fitted with 160+hp in-boards and I'm a bit concerned about the boat performance.
The boat is about 300 miles away and I will obviously sea trial the boat but that will not be for about a month as the owner is away so I just wondered if anyone has any info or even owns the same boat/engine configuration that could give me some advise,
I'm not expecting the boat to perform like a speed boat but at the same time I would be a little bored plodding alone at c15 kts.
Any help and advise would be gratefully received,
