Digs11 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 I just sold my Ranger 692 and now I'm looking to downsize. I have an opportunity to pick up a Warrior 16' Falcon. I'm anxious for a new ride but don't want to rush and make a mistake. Any opinions on if this boat with a 60hp tiller will be comfortable on the states bigger water or should I sit and wait for a 17 or 18 footer to come along ? Your advice is appreciated.

Northlander Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 If your going to run bigger waters I would go at least 17' and more towards 18'. More stable and can handle a bigger motor wich is nice when it gets nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digs11 Posted July 4, 2008 Author Share Posted July 4, 2008 Yup, I agree, I am now without a boat and am anxious and willing to settle but I lost the boat anyway. Thanks for the response Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjac Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Don't settle....do a little browsing and surfing and you'll find a lot of nice mid-power range tillers in the 18' range. Lots of good boats to be had! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borch Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 I run my 16 ft Lund predator on Mille Lacs, Leech, Cass and don't feel undergunned at all. But if you plan on fishing these lakes frequently a good 18ft would be awfully nice!Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
