hey dave,
i launched my 1760 tiller last fall on a landing where my partner was standing next to the boat in rubber boots that only came up to his mid-calf. my understanding is that the hull is slightly deeper than the 618, so i doubt you'd have any trouble with that boat either.
that being said, after talking to you a number of times over the past year, my advice would be to be patient. you've talked about how much you've liked your last two Tuffy boats and that you wish you'd bought mine last fall. if what you really want is a 1760 tiller, it's worth the little bit of an extra drive (2 hours is not very far) to get one with the Yammy.
also, i had the same thoughts you did about the 1890 being a "big" boat. after running it this year it's a great combo of big water safety (you do live on Green Bay) and still being pretty nimble. don't overlook the 1890 GT. Jeff Hanson has one down here in Madison and that's one cool boat.
give me a call when you get a chance, i've got one other idea to float your way.
