Good luck in your search. My first boat was a 16 Angler. I always wanted to have a Cruiser instead! Such a cool layout.

A 16' cruiser is an oxymoron.
Aye.

I do embrace C-Dory boats. I bought one once. They are greatest when used in
mild to modest conditions for most people. Outside of those variables, other
brands are probably better choices IMHO. I realize some enjoy stretching the
envelope which, of course, is their choice.
I know a few folks that run snowmobiles over open water in the ice. I would
not recommend doing this for most people either.
Aye. |

Hey Foggy,
Why the attack on the CD 16 Cruiser? We've had a CD 16 Cruiser going on ten years... it has met or exceeded our needs quite admirably. It's like putting down someone who prefers using a Toyota Land Cruiser FJ 40 and a pup tent to go camping just because you drive a large RV.
Be safe,
Spuncopper |

Sorry, not an attack just an opinion.
An attack would be quite quite different.
Aye.

Sounds like you've done that! I camped out in the back of my 1977 FJ 45 for 10 months while attending college. Didn't have a pup tent !!
Regards, Rob

Hey Rob,
How about that, my FJ 40 was a 1977, too. We spent as much time as we could exploring the sw desert and Baja in that rig. Lots of fun.
 take care,
Spuncopper |
