Sometimes a basic cuddy cabin is a great choice. Heres a couple I've got pics of from the PacNW builders. Pretty sure the 1st one is an Eaglecraft out of BC, Canada. Second one is a Seawolf (local). I've got some more somewhere I'll add later.
Lets hear it for the classic runabout

Chaps,
The second boat really looks like an old 21-23' Mako walkaround cuddy, from the late 80's early 90's. Not that they or anyone had anything in common when they built them. But I remember those Mako's because I almost bought one. And the basic lines are of that boat remind me of the Mako.
I guess, an EagleCraft can always be identified by the "splash" board / toe rail on the bow of their boats. Which is really a nice idea.
Keep' em coming!

Good to see you here Ruggit. Was Seawolf not at the in-water show? Thats where they normally are. I fish on a Seawolf raised pilot house in alaska and a 27' regular PH out of Westport in the summers Both boats belong to a friend of mine. Here is me last year with a very tasty Chinook salmon caught from the 27. I recall it weighed in about 30 lbs.ruggit wrote:Didn't see Seawolf in Seattle. Is he retiring, or just booked up?
He was one of the early builders of alloy recreational boats, and turns out a quality product.

The last thing my wife will let me do with a fat ocean Chinook is smoke it - thats what they invented coho & brite chum fer . . . that said it does get hit with a load of smoke when I throw it on the Q but the time spent there is far shorter than a traditional trip in the smokehouse (hours)JETTYWOLF wrote:MMMMmmmmm, did ya smoke house that baby?
