19 foot Renken 2002 Limited Cuddy with a 4.3L Mercruiser outdrive, right now the boat is on the hard undergoing some needed TLC. A great all-around boat for fishing, skiing, and general horsing around on the water. Probably going to replace the trailer, the previous owner just bought an old trailer to take it to and from the Yacht Club, a two mile drive. Depending on where I go, I'm either 20 minutes to over an hour and a half from the water. It needs new springs, and I want brakes. The boat alone weighs 2500 # dry.

BTW, Crumm, nice boat, man. You should bring it down to Hell's Canyon down here by where I live and take me steelhead fishing... Ha ha

Take a different boat than mine for hells canyon. The jets that run hells canyon are closed bow with more degree in the hull. Mine is a open bow for hauling a 4-wheeler and it only has a 7 degree deadrise. Mine is for very shallow water(like 2-3"). In big water like hells canyon it would be a very rough ride and probably end up being swamped. On the other hand the V8 powered 12 degree jets that run hells canyon would be stuck in half the rivers I can run. We don't have the big water up here like hells canyon and the snake.

I've towed a 23 foot 2002 Cobalt (something like that name, im not big into boats)

i just remember the truck was clean, the boat was clean as some brand new shoes, and i felt like one of the coolest mothers on the planet!
