Rogue wave on the sea of life

[northernmainev20]

Ferminator, my accountant (pronounced "wife") says my budget is modest. I'll be doing most of the work myself. Still leaning towards financing the brand new 150 E-Tec. I think this would be the best choice in the long run. (i.e. warranty, mpg, etc.) Would like to find a used bracket, w/flotation sounds like the way to go. I probably won't go with one with a big platform b/c I want the ladder and the kicker motor. A bracket with capabilities for both would probably get too pricey. I like the looks of the one stinky was on, but without the skids from the thong. ;D

There are so many great suggestions and mods on this site, I need to take it all in. I'm going to take the seadrive off and get the transom ready while I decide which way to go.
