23 ft potter cuddy

[TarponTom]

maek,
As they say, every boat is a compromise in one way or another, the Cuddy is no exception. What you may give up in one area you will gain in another. I have rode in both Cuddy and CC and since the hull is identical the small difference is I think as said, the more forward seat placement and bigger yet, most CC riders are standing. Your legs are a much better shock absorber than your ass and have less memory. The gain is far more (lockable) storage, larger deck area and the ability to overnight more comfortably. I'm 6'3" and am very comfortable in the cabin which was surprising to me! I'm also more at ease in nasty weather with a fully enclosed bow which will spill off a roller not shovel it in. A 23 Cuddy with full curtains is an all weather boat. The only drawback I find is not being able to fight a fish 360 degrees.
