I live on a 1500-acre lake that gets rough on weekends.  I am
looking for a ski boat that my teenagers can handle and that I can 
enjoy for cruising around on the lake.  

For various reasons, including the fact that everyone in
Indianapolis is on the lake on a nice Sunday afternoon, I decided
not to go under sixteen feet.  Because I want to pull my boat out
of the water once in a while and take it to other lakes, I am
looking at eighteen feet and under centerline length.

I have decided I want an I/O.  I have also decided that I want
170 hp.

I have seen two boats that I like.  One is a Wellcraft.  The
other is a Sea Ray.  The prices are close, but the Sea Ray is
more (the Sea Ray seems to be worth more selling as a used boat,
too). 

Which one do I buy, and why?
