Dad's and my 1997 27' Sportcraft
454 Mercruiser
Lowrance HDS
The rest is still being set up
Likes:
Trailers pretty easy (2 of us can trailer her in almost the same time as 18')
Great fishability
Will handle the worst conditions
Built like a battle tank
Not terrible on fuel (I can do 1.5 mpg if I don't run over 3200)
Dislikes:
My truck gets almost as bad of fuel mileage when I trailer LOL
Poor birth for sleeping but then again she's a fishing vessel
I'll try to add a better pic, there doesn't seem to be a better one on this computer

My 1987 four winns 241 liberator. 454 with bravo 1 not your normal fishing boat.....but had to get one that would fill the speed freak in me too and the needs of a growning family to be.
likes...FAST and LOUD, Lots of seating to take ppl with me if we go to the island, plenty or room in the cuddy, cold fridge, handles the waves very nice, even on plane in 4 to 5 ft, open space to fish for both walleye and perch.
dislike no place to get out the sun( yet ) or the rain or wave spray. can't troll she idles at like 6mph, only has a 454 not a 502 or bigger( maybe next winter ) won't stay on good plane much under about 22mph but on the other hand cruised real nice at around 35 mph at 2800-3000 rpm
