Hi...
Where are you located? I was supposed to go out for a test ride on a 20ft deep model here in NJ and I am just waiting for some nasty weather to crop up to do so. If you want to join me, there is one in the water near me...

Have driven the 18 Maritime and it handles a chop real well. It is a very nice running boat. Having said that, it is also a thin glass, very light hull and I have questions about it's durability. I know of a few hulls that had gel coat cracks and enough damage that they had to be replaced. This was supposed to be caused by workmanship in a plant no long used in R.I. I looked long and hard at them before deciding to buy a Parker 18.
