High Points
▶ Suggested retail price is not likely to
deliver sticker shock.
▶ Double 7-foot-long cabin berths are
well-suited to overnighting.
▶ Enclosed helm area will keep you dry
and comfortable.
Low Points
▶ Walkways along the side to the bow are narrow, but handrails on the hardtop offer places to hold on.
▶ Windshield wipers are an option you should order for a better forward view when taking spray.
