Niko, based on your budget and want for fuel economy with 4 strokes in the 150 range you can rule out boats like a 26 Regulator, 28 whitewater, 27 contender etc...that are too heavy or too expensive.

The Sailfish rolls pretty well with twin F150's. It won't be a high top end boat and weight will effect it a bit, but a good overall platform build off the SeaCraft design with decent economy. You may also want to look at a 23 Regulator that has been re-powered with twin 4 strokes. The 23 Reg will go out any day a 26 Reg goes out. Another boat I would take a close look at is the 24 HydraSports with twins. Take a good look at one if you haven't, they are little tanks.

I know it's not exactly what you are looking for but I know of a 1999 26 Robalo walk around that was recently re-powered by twin Verado 150's for sale by a meticulous owner for under $25K located in Falmouth. He wants it gone so I think there is some flex in price too.
