Hi all, I took the whole family out in the V-16 this weekend. My wife, my 14 year old son, my 18 month year old grandson and myself. It was my wife and grandson's first time in the boat. My wife gave it her seal of approval, a definite bonus.
This is why we bought the bigger boat and it worked like a charm. We moved the seats so that my wife and grandson could sit on the floor of the boat and have all the room they needed. My son had trolling motor and anchor duty and he found out that it is a lot more work than it looks. Ha! I just kept baiting hooks.
The boat performed perfectly. With quite a full load we still hit the low 30s with the 60hp. I remounted my speedo for the fishfinder and that works great now. Best of all, my grandson was introduced to his first fish. This is what it's all about. Hope all had a good weekend.
