I have thought about Pacific boats though.

Do you have a dealer for them out that way?

They promote their boats with Honda 4-strokes, (at least locally) but
their buyers are typically pretty savvy. Lots of them are guys who
used the company's boats in the commercial fishing industry (they sell
a lot of seiner tenders) and a lot of fishing lodges up in AK. I think
that if a company were unlikely to insist that you rig a boat with X
engine, Pacific might be a good example. They build them up in
Marysville, WA and AFAIK they are pretty darn stout.
