We have a 26' flybridge cruiser (someone once referred to it as a nice
"starter boat") that we cruise on Lake Superior. We also trailered it to
Alaska and Florida, another reason for a smaller boat. It's also fun to
be able to squeeze into a place on the dock that other boats pass up. I
also find the smaller boats tend to go out and fool around during the
day while the bigger ones sit at the dock to hang onto their spot.
