Location: Mt. Zion, IL | Dad has a 2007 1625 Classic which is very similar to the Fury 1600. It is very stable in reasonable waves for a 16' boat. The front deck is too low IMO to cast for muskies from a seated position. The gunwhales are over knee high on the front deck. That would eliminate any figure 8 for me. Dad has a 25 3 cyl suzi 4 stroke on his and it gets to about 25 with two guys and light gear. I would definitely go 16 over 14 any day. If you get a roller trailer with a front ladder and an electric winch, you can launch the boat very easily anywhere. I have a 16.5' alumacraft on a roller trailer and we launched it in a pond last year with minimal effort. |
