Nubbin,
I have had a 1997 tiller, same model. Owned it for 5 years. Love the boat. Get about 33mph in it with one person (75 merc 2 stroke, SS prop).
If you want a great boat that can handle both big and little water you won’t go wrong with it.
The only down side IMO is how its wired. They wired it so you are supposed to be able to charge trolling motor batteries off main motor with a plug jumper and you are also supposed to be able to charge batteries from 120V outlet through same plugs that connect trolling motor to batteries. In theory it seems great and kinda works but its more just a mess as fuses are built into plugs. If you want more details just search IDO for “warrior power system.”
By no means should this keep you from buying it, its just a heads up. I would buy my boat over and over again.
Any other q’s just feel free to PM me.
