Default Re: Notch my transom?

Thanks for all the feedback, this is a great forum. This is a tough decision. I have to say, the marina where I priced the Yamahas carries Hydra-Sports and I really think the Hydra-Sport DC2020 looks sweet ($32k for a 2005 w/a Yamaha F150), but I know I won't like it as much as my V-20. Amazingly little cockpit space with the eurotransom and the head compartment is useless for a grown male. Repowering and glass work for my V-20 would easily run $15k, which I'd be lucky to get 1/2 back if I ever decided to sell. So here's what I'm going to do (for now).... nothing. I'm going to keep the SeaDrive for the upcoming season and catch more fish (CB - on Long Isand Sound, mostly casting w/light spinning tackle and occasional fly fishing when they're on the surface for Blues, sight casting to feeding stripers in shallow water, blind casting for stripers around structure and limited bottom fishing at anchor) on the V-20 as well as do more exploring with the kids and wife. Even the sales guy at the Yamaha dealer, which also sells Bombardier product, said the old OMCs are bullet proof. So we'll have more fun as is. Thanks again.
