Re: Best 18ft boat
Depends entirely on how you want it setup. New at a guess you'd be at 80-90k for a fishable but basic setup, well over 100k fully decked out with the works. Then being a hand built custom boat you've got the wait time.
Second hand I'm yet to see one under 60k. And they don't pop up often.
Under powered depends entirely on the boat, not every boat needs 200 horses behind it

Re: Best 18ft boat
There was a yellow one with a 200hp opti selling for 55k a couple of years back.
The gunshoot I went in was fitted with a 150hp yam and it went well.
A little more HP would have been nice and I like lots of HP but 200hp would be overkill.
