she's got a 90 hp Johnson..I have used her to go clamming in some very shallow spots on the bay.. she floats and runs at idle speed in one foot of water and when she's on plane in less then one foot, she holds aprox 40 gal. of fuel and cruises 30 kts at 4500 rpms not WOT is 43 kts not sure on the rpm's or the burn rate.. I know one thing she sips fuel. hope this helps.
I'm looking for an 18ft boat or so but that one looks real nice with the T-top. I live in central CT, not sure when i'd find the time to make it down there to NJ. How well will that handle the sound?

I have had some interest on her and will post some more pics..
we use it in the Barnegat bay and it rides great in the chop.. would love to take you on a sea trial when we have some wind out there to prove how well this boat rides for its size.
