If you know about Fib Fab you must be on cape or somewhere close. Bob has a 17 mold and a 13 mold and has been making a few boats over the last couple seasons. Give him a call and ask about them.

Went to a boat show a couple of weeks ago. They had an 18 foot Eastern, 90 yamaha four stroke, and trailer for $20k. Reel nice. You should take a look if that is in your price range.
The Seaway is awesome also.
Good luck

The Stagepoint 17 is a pretty little center console skiff. http://www.soundboatworksllc.com/stage.html
