It's only a 16 footer but it's so comfortable behind the wheel and on
the deck fishin. The tri hull is awesome look-wise and runs thru the
water like no other 16 footer I've been on. The color scheme on this rig
is awesome, Silver flake on bottom to a flat Black, Red pinstripes and
Silver flake on top and inside. I love this boat. If I were to buy
another boat it would definitely have to be another Craft, at least a 19

funny to
watch people look at you while they point, look at |

by. I'm in the middle of a 2.4 Bridgeport deal that |

spins 8500
rpms. The lower unit is a 2 to 1 ratio low water |
|
| |
pickup. All
you guys out there trying to get your engine height |
|
| |
set just
right good luck, each time you go out the water |
|
| |
conditions
change. Trust me, go with a hydraulic jackplate, |
|
| |
you can
plane easier and run bigger props. |
|
| |
I run all
Choppers big and small ear, 26", 28" 30". I run 83 |
|
| |
mph with
two guys and gear, by myself it runs 88 mph. |
|

With the
Bridgeport maybe 100 mph, "hold on". |
