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.

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!

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

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!

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.
