Advise on buying a C-Dory

I am looking for a 19' Angler C-Dory to buy.
I'd like as much input as possible on the pros and cons of buying one...mostly the negatives (I already think they are a great little boat).

I'm buying it primarilly for fishing. I need an outboard so I will have stern room for my crab pots, etc. I won't spend much time "overnighting" in it (I just sold a 24' cruiser).

I will be using it in the Seattle Sound area....once in awhile it gets a little rough, but not too bad.

Looking forward to your input.

Thanks,
Tim

Just an FYI, according to their website EQMarine has a red 19 in stock Smile

Besides, How can you go wrong? It's a C-Dory! Laughing

For strickly fishing I think the 19 can't be beat. With the open back and large cockpit area it is just about perfect for 2 people to fish out of. Plus if you do choose to sleep overnight you still have the V-Birth. I would definitely have a drop curtain put on the back of the cabin though.

Good luck shopping!
