The 585 is a great Boat...but if you really have the option I'd defiantly consider going bigger..the extra size in 6.8 or 7.8 will bill be a real bonus in many ways....the 6.3 not so much

Gotta tell you something!

Not the best time of year to buy....but persevere and something will crop up for sure
May be worth giving Ribcraft a ring...I bought my first RC through them when a previous customer commissioned his second... A Larger Boat.
