|
|
The CD 16 appears to ring the bell for a great many boaters that are on a short budget. Its cute, seaworthy to a large degree and devoid of complicated systems to maintain.
It would be great to hear from some tall owners and to learn if their height and weigh affects their fun meter.
At 260lbs and 6'2" Would someone find it too difficult to get around on board this compact vessel? |

I am 6' -1" and 180# and fished out of Winter Harbour BC once a year for 10 years with my 6'-3" 300# brother. We didn't have any problems in my 16' Angler. Pics are in my photo album (16Pounder).

Al | I’ll look them up.
Just drove into Lake George NY and wonder if any C-dory’s reside here. Crossed the Erie Canal in wonder. |
