[QUOTE="JB_24, post: 234613, member: 518"] I say buy the Yar!!!! I've had 3 different 1785's so far (2-side consoles & a tiller). The tiller had a 90 hp yamaha 4stroke on back & i was able to get 36-38 mph out of it. Only reason I got rid of the tiller & went back to the side console was for more speed (current boat is setup with a 150 opti & i can constantly get 48 mph with 2 people & i've topped it out myself at 51). There was plenty of storage for me in the tiller. I used one of the rod lockers as tackle storage, under the front deck had all my life jackets ropes rain gear, & then i plugged off the rear baitwell to use as storage as well. Once my "need for speed" goes away I wouldn't hesitate at all to go back to a 1785 tiller. You will get a little wet, but that boat can handle anything you throw at it. I had my first side console out in 4'-5' waves (anyone remember the prairie knights tourney 4 or 5 years ago?) & that boat handled it like a champ. [/QUOTE]
