I think you have made wise choice in evaluating YOUR situation. I know you will be happy with either boat because quite frankly, they are both a Tiara. Just wanted to say one additional piece of information for other that may read in the future. I think the safety concern is more about carbon monoxide than the boat burning. Carbon monoxide at idle when on the hook especially at night is what scares me about gas boats and gas generators. I have 3 separate CO detectors in my boat and I run diesel but those around me may be running generators on gas. CO is the real killer in gas generators/engines. Good luck with you purchase and keep us informed and if you have any additional questions. I know Chris has a wealth of information about Tiara's.
