I think I saw the boat listed. It looked like a good deal. Those Cape Horn's are supposed to be indestructible. Shoot me a PM after you run it. I have been thinking about a Cape Horn myself. Would like to know how you like yours.

H u did what intended on doing but ended up buying much more than I needed. I kept telling myself I only needed a 18 or 19footer.O well enjoy your rig .It should ride real well.

I owned a cape horn 19 for 3 years and wish I had never sold it. It was a great boat for big lake and the close rigs. Even took it 30 miles out once. Felt very safe. Easy to clean and maintain.

Enjoy the new ride!

Nice......

jjam 12-24-2011 02:26 AM

Awesome sled
 
Congratulations!!!!!!!!

Very popular here in P-cola....very safe and stable hull, i see them off shore 20+ miles during the summer months quite often...

Now, go get her decks all bloodied up and post up a report already...(where's the thumps up icon???) oh well, thumbs up and again congrats!

Not everyone has the balls to go 50 miles out with 1 engine. :D

Dink 12-24-2011 11:45 AM

He's got a Merc, he's gold

Montauk17 12-24-2011 11:46 AM

LOL....I don't care what brand of motor going that far out on one engine is dangerous. I know I won't be doing it again. My back hurts just thinking about it. Nice boat by the way.

Sissy!:p

Gotta give props to the Cape Horn! I have been on Dink's and, yeah, it's WET but, I never worried bout the safety aspects.

Call it what you want. I have done it several times but I prefer not to again. Burn up your one and only motor offshore and you would change your mind quick. With twins you can idle back safely.
