Dave, welcome to the land of the mobo. We wil probably need a bit more info from you with respect to the type of boating you want to do. There are all sorts of 18' sports boats, doing 30+ knots, river cruisers at 5 kn, day boats, cuddies, fishers etc.

 

[Dave-Shafa]

18' sports boats, doing 30+ knots sounds fine. I want the type that pulls the girls.
