Livingwater,
Well, he's actually not that much of a "boat person" so he left it mostly to me. We decided on the Dauntless. He has been riding around down here in one that a friend of his has, and of course the differences from the Montauk 17 are enormous. Have gone thru the options we want. I will probably install some of the electronics. Right now looking at whether to stay with BW's 135 Merc, or go ahead on a Evinrude 150 ETEC.

Any thoughts on the matter greatly appreciated.

Just got back ten minutes ago from an afternoon on Caicos Bank. didnt fish, but brought home 10 nice conch. And a sunburn.
