After my son froze my butt off on a fishing trip years ago, I gladly traded the bowrider for the cuddy. Now, in January, I have a place to sip coffee and warm up before I go to the back and do some more fishing. |Small cuddies are worthless as tits on a boar hog in my opinion. *They just |end up being big storage areas. How small is small? And you'll have the same problem with the bowrider.... only the stuff will just roll and blow around. |No one wants to ride in there so you're |just sacrificing passenger space that you would have had with an open bow. You are not *always* underway. My wife likes the privacy issue and, being very fair, appreciates having somewhere out of the sun. She'll also go below to read sometimes while we're anchored and I'm fishing. |If you want to entertain that means other couples. *Everyone will want to |sit outside when the boat is moving. That tends to be true. |When the boat is sitting still the |cuddy is too hot to stay in anyway. It sure can where we live, but this guy is going to be in a colder climate. |\My experience is that everyone is in a bathing |suit and just jumps in the lake to pee. Yeah, right. Maybe 6 months out of the year, here, but the OP boats in Lake Erie. That oughta make those puppies perky even if Mom is 85 years old.... Guy with a 21' Parker pilothouse has a great cabintop A/C on his boat that runs off a small gasoline Honda generator he keeps at the stern of the boat. http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...00CC/21parkera... http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...00CC/21parkera... http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2.../21parkerg...- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - George Forman "grill"......snicker.... |
