It actually was a pretty nice little boat. As you saw I was in some decent wind gusts during the filming and the boat was easy to handle. Storage was decent and this particular boat, powered with the 115 yamaha, popped up out of the hole and handled well.
On the “didn’t like” side of things the bow sat up a little high for my tastes but maybe some of that could have been remedied with some redistribution of weight.
Overall it very much reminded me of a 1750 fishhawk in layout and handling.
