I'm here to tell you, the 2120 is a wonderful small boat. It is the perfect trailerable all-season boat for my striper habit. The EEZ is three miles out and I feel comfortable in the 2120 to at least five or six, so it works beautifully. I fish three guys most of the time, but four will work if you're not giant size like me and my friends.
I moved to this boat from an eighteen foot CC with T-top. No contest, absolutely a step in the right direction. The thing most folks don't realize is the wonderful windbreak that the pilot house provides, especially when anchored. Another nice thing is the cabin is low profile enough not to become a sail when trying to dock. Some can't stand the step down and bang their heads constantly, however this is not a problem for me - even at 6'4" tall. I guess I have plenty of practice ducking and I learn quick.
I fish until the ramps freeze, and that only locks me out during deep winter (February). Here on the Chesapeake this style boat is a winner and the length is the perfect compromise between too small for comfort and too big to tow. Did I say that 0.6 gallons per hour trolling is a nice benefit? How about 5 or 6 gallons per hour cruise (with an F150)? Get the 200 hp if you are wooried about hole shot and all that other crap, but the F150 takes care of me with few regrets.
See my web page for more about this fabulous boat. You will either like it or hate it. Want a ride? Contact me for a ride on my next striper trip. I won't charge a dime, but if you're poor company I'll have no choice but to return you to the dock :wink:
