Hi.
I'm looking for suggestions for a smallish trailerable boat that would be suitable for brief overnights with my wife and two young (5 & 6 year-old) children. We'll mostly be doing day trips (tubing/skiing and some fishing), but would like to be able to do the occasional close-to-home "camping". I don't see us doing more than one night on the water very often, if at all. Realistically, the cabin will be used mostly for the kids to nap & escape from rain, but we do want to be able to spend the night now & then. FWIW, a swim platform is almost a necessity. We're a tight family, and can easily sleep in a king size bed together, so cramped quarters aren't a big concern. Headroom needs to accomodate the kids, but Mommy & Daddy only really need use it horizontally. We'll be launching on the Magothy River (a few minutes from the Chesapeake Bay), about a mile from home, so don't expect to spend much time dragging the boat behind my truck, but it does need to be on a trailer when not in use. Thanks in advance. P.S. What's the difference between a 'cuddy cabin' and a 'cabin cruiser'? -- kevin c smith http://centricle.com |
