Dear board,
I realize that this boat is a compromise of compromises as far as paddlers are concerned.
I am looking for a boat with great capacity suitable for fishing that doesn’t require a trailer to realistically transport. It won’t be an ocean-going vessel or need to shoot rapids. It will be mostly used solo or with my wife to fish local lakes that are electric motor only or horsepower restricted. I have a transom mount trolling motor that I know will push it well, and I’d consider a small gas powered outboard as well. I’d even row it myself from the center seat if oarlocks are easily added.
I have a larger outboard powered boat that I’d like to dispose of simply because it’s too much of a hassle to use by myself.
Neither myself or my wife are younger folks, and I am a very large folk, hence the need for great capacity.
Does anyone have anything to offer as far as opinions after owning and using a Cargo? Or do you have any other suggestions as to boats suitable to my needs?
Regards,
Tim Murphy
