True, but I was commenting on his 86, and by that time I think that Wellcraft had moved to the 150 as the stock setup. In all cases we both agree that a 115 is woefully underpowered for that hull.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
