[QUOTE="great white, post: 362648, member: 6238"] Nothing wrong with a 12. Mine is a 12: [img]https://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e235/gr8twhite/lockeddownalbum/boat/dads%20build/800x600/d2bb768d-1.jpg[/img] That's pre- carpet. It fits 2, but is much more enjoyable with one. Which suits me just fine. I kept the center bench. It is the rear support for the front deck. The 8 HP gets it on plane nicely. Its also easy to maneuver and fits in the garage easily. Build it the way you want. You can always take it out if you don't like it or it doesn't perform properly. If nothing else, you will gain the skills needed (ie: practice run) for your bigger boat when you get it. Just make sure you keep it light in your build. 12 footers don't like a lot of weight. :) [/QUOTE]
