Phil thanks for the great survey, Ive been using the Pelican for two years now and the survey comments for this cooler are spot on. I dont care so much for refrigritation since when I'm traveling I need fuel enough that getting Ice at same time doesnt really bother me. I travel solo so I dont...

Cliff will do Tuesday fire

Hey am I on fire detail this year ? If so what night ? if not no problem I just need to know whether to bring my fire stuff, remember I'm on a 16 its a back pac with a 50 Honda :wink:

I can add some more to this Ocklawaha story thats for sure, I've been running it 7 or 8 years now. My first runs were on a 13 ft Whaler with a center console which is the perfect boat for this crooked river. Ocklawaha is an indian name for crooked water. In about 1840 the first steam boat made...

After three years I vote for forward roof mount, I dont like anything on bowrail just because dont like looking at it all the time. With light on forward roof I navagiate at night with no problems. I solved your problem wanting lighting in other areas of the boat with a hand held. I'm using the...

Hi and welcome to this good source of information on these incredible boats. I've had a 16 cruiser for 3 1/2 yrs now and i actually use my craft 300 to 400 hrs a year. This boat is effortless to trailer and launch primarily due to it's light weight. When I pilot this boat I can step to the...
