Much of this is dependent on what you want and can afford. A 16 foot boat like the lunker works just fine. Fishes big water well enough but you must choose your times based on weather conditions. Lake of the woods, Kississing in Manitoba, Chequamegon bay, Leech Lake, Mille Lacs are some of the bigger waters I have fished out of my old lunker CS and it was just fine.
I started with an Alumacraft V14 with a 15hp Johnson outboard and had that on lake of the woods as well. owned that for about 5 years before the lunker about 5 - 6 years before upgrading from it to a Navigator 165 CS for 13 years, now in a ranger 617.
Some would argue all of those rigs are too small to fish from, but the muskies can't tell the difference. Fish when you can where you can if the conditions are suitable to fish.
