[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 420125, member: 15636"] FWIW I had a 12' skiff of the same shape, lighter boat, with the 'tumblehome' on the stern (where the top-sides taper in as the sides move up to meet the top of the gunnel [gunwhale]), and the rounded chines at the garboard (transition piece where the running bottom of the hull and the top-sides meet). My 12-footer was a tippy canoe with those rounded chines, so I'd try her a few times for stability, before adding anything. To me it looks like one of the lighter 14' models, which would limit the max OB motor HP and its base stability. Appears to be a 'Sears' brand boat. Appears to be a nice clean rig though! Based on what I'm seeing I think if you can get it for $900 it would be OK, not sure I'd go more. [/QUOTE]
