Bob, I'm so sorry to read about Angel's passing. We just love our animals so much, and when they're gone they take a piece of our heart. What a warm and wonderful friend Angel was. :love

Brandon, welcome. I generally fuel up at Cap Sante and sometimes find time walk the docks to view boats. I'm pretty sure I've seen yours. At any rate, I'm a big fan of the 16' Angler/Cruiser--as are many others here. Are you planning to cruise to Friday Harbor?

Hi, you guys. Marty, nice thread. I don't yet qualify for emeritus status, but one day that'll come and I'll also want to communicate with my friends here. I'll tell you, it brings me joy just knowing that my boat is always up in a shed at the San Juan Islands' doorstep, waiting for me to...

Marty, MikeR and Mark, (3M), I sure enjoyed reading your perspectives on the 16', sharing the places you cruised, the way you utilized space, its trailerability, and just the joy of owning that spectacular little boat. No doubt the four of us know at least another dozen guys who'd also add...

Mark, thanks for the months-long Venture from beginning to end. It was a fun winter journey to follow. I'm looking forward to cruising with that boat--and its occupants. Congratulations, Steve and Joanie! :gift

Well said, Gary. I agree, and my thanks as well, Phil, for giving us a glimpse at the galaxy of creatures and colors under our hulls. :rainbow

A beautiful, grey stripped 16' Angler motored east through Seattle's Montlake Cut today at 1 p.m. The couple aboard waved to my buddy and me, and looked to be having a splendid time on this Super Bowl Sunday. Later, we saw them head west, back into Lake Union. It's ironic that the last two walks...

I'd bet that adding two feet to that hull made it a measurably more efficient cruiser. What's your boat's horsepower capacity now, do you suppose? The 60 horse Honda would look right nice back there.

Mark, following Steve and Joanie's Venture come to life is fun. I think you should do this for every boat. That's not too much to ask, is it?

Thanks for the info, David, and nice to hear from you. Have you had a chance to get out in your unique 16/18' Cruiser?

Gary, I'll second that. This is my kind of entertainment, watching their sparkling craft evolve. :clock

Gosh, I sure love all this enthusiasm! Harvey, I missed this thread, but count me in as well. I'm the other Brock with a Venture. ( I gotta meet the Bellingham version.) Thanks for firing this up again. So if they allow it, we will migrate. MikeR and I just spent the long weekend at Friday...

Hey, Pat and Patty, that's really cool news. But are our "slow cruisers" about to fashion a personality makeover?

Gary, yes, same boat, I believe. Not sure who the new owners are. Maybe they'll jump on here and reveal the secret!

Pennybridge, that was me and a buddy waving at you in your 23' Venture Saturday near the UW as you headed east through the Montlake Cut. I'm sure you had a dock full of other admirers as you explored the region that mostly sunny day. :star

Gosh, David, a week in the ICU's a hell of a thing to have to go through. I wish you the best in your continued recovery. Just know that there's a lot of us here in your corner. :rainbow

Hey, Steve and Joanie, I'm excited for you. Your boat's a little ahead of schedule, no? I'm sure Daybreak agrees with me, you're going to love it. I'll tell you, after 578 hours on my 23', it's still a brand new thrill every time I fire her up for another adventure. (Then again, all our C-Dorys...

Thanks, Mark. I'll enjoy following the process! Brock

And one more: Harvey, thanks for all the energy and affection you add to our little corner of the world. You're a pretty darn big reason why this website is so much fun to be a part of. :star

Jim, thanks for sharing several details of your experience. I think doing so may well encourage some of us guys to make an appointment for a routine physical--maybe even without our wife's insistence. I wish you and Joan the best this holiday season, and I'll be in the stands rooting for your...
