    The motor is just about bullet-proof. It's very reliable.

    The hull is a very good design. It performs very good with a 130.

    The layout of the boat is very good for a 17' boat. The only issue I'd have with the one you mentioned is the dual console. No larger than the boat is, that second console is really going to cut down on your usable space. It is also going to take almost a foot out of the length of your port side rod locker.

    If the room isn't important to you, then I would say it is an excellent boat/motor combination.
