Hello I have a 2006 16 cruiser for sale. This boat is in great shape, and is loaded. If youve been waiting to get a nice one at a great price, this is it. Fill the tanks and head out. It sits on a pacific galvanized trailer Honda 40 hp main motor with approx 200 hrs on it (just had plugs...

I have 2 trucks, a 1996 nissan with 275,000 miles that will not die, and a 1998 dodge 2500 turbo diesel. I only own the big one for large towing capacity. I love the cummins diesel, but the truck in all is just ok. As people chimed in , it is not unpatriotic to buy a japanese vehicle. Ask the...

what i do and just did on a 12 day cruise to the san juans with my 16 cd is, milk crate it. i cut a notch in the milk crate to allow the anchor to sit almost flush with the top of the crate. this allows it to fit perfectly in the space directly under the cushion that pops out. i can reach it...

Hello all Ive had my cd16 about 3 mos and have been having a ball. Interesting topic as always. I dont think population is the main issue. The earth has plenty of room, it just doesnt have an infinate amount of resources. The earth can handle many, many, more people. They just cant live...

No its nothing quite that exciting. Just a single cylinder 650 cc street/dirt motorcycle. It does sound like something you can find at a couple of the specialty stores around here known as good vibrations, but thats a different story....

Yes ive purchased the boat and plan on using it on the bay. The past two weeks have been exellent for it. It is our true summer time. unfortunately i pick it up thursday so ive missed some prime cruising time . Oh well. The good thing is its on a trailer so i can always find some nice...

Yes I think youre right. A boat has to be on plane to achieve a speed that much higher than hull speed doesnt it? I guess I just expected the boat to lay flat as it reached plane. Hence the newbie handle. Thanks to you all.

Help please. I am purchasing a 2006 cd 16 cruiser. It has a honda 40 hp 2006 with a 11 3/4 x 13 inch prop 3 blade. I went to finish the deal and the boat was not able to get up on plane. The boat got up to about 21-23 mph, but never leveled out. These items I have added to boat. It has a...

Wow so many great suggestions.. Thank you all. I do like mini- me, and had that in mind also. Dr John im surprised you didnt suggest C-section, or maybe youre not that kind of doc.. Geoff

Well i would say its very close, almost identical. I like the name of your boat, but i see the cd16 as more micro than efficient. No chance of a duplicare name. So far i think it will be micro-fish... or maybe c-dancer

Thanks for the replies. I like efishinc thats good.

Hello to all. I will have a 16 cruiser in a couple of weeks. Then I will no longer post as newbie, but use my boat name. Im very excited. I hope to take some fun adventures like ive been reading about here. A couple of names ive been thinking about. Any comments of likes or dislikes...

Im getting a 16 cruiser soon. Im trying to get it completed real soon. I want a 5hp kicker. Do I need to get the long shaft? Do I need a bracket?, if yes what is the benefit? Thanks to all of you for all your responses to my many other newbie questions. Geoff
