Well, I disagree on the air bubble concept as well. I found that 20' Aquasport an okay ride, extremely wet, slow to drain for a self bailer. The very low transom cutout used to take waves over the transom when at anchor let alone a following sea. I used to keep a slip and mooring on a notoriously dangerous river given the right conditions (east wind with outgoing tide or after a storm) and claims at least one life per year. I took a couple waves over the transom entering the inlet on separate occasions. The water was very slow to drain, and I felt very uncomfortable (not confident) with the design of the boat given those circumstances. Probably a fine bay boat, but I felt like I was taking unnecessary risks. I still use that river a lot as there is a nice ramp there and the Striper fishing is excellent in that area as well. I feel much safer in my tin boat than I did in that Aquasport. Mine had a 120 Evinrude hanging off the transom. I bought the V20 right after unloading the Aquasport.
I can say with with almost 100% certainty that this boat in the ad is a 20' Aquasport (or whatever they want to call it) and not an 18'. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.
