My buddy is looking at this tomorrow. Underpowered or no? Chuckworthy whatsoever?

in that third pic on the dock look at the freeboard of that transom with absolutely no weight whatsoever in it. i’m not gonna slam it’s seaworthiness but for the water i fish in, its a hard no for me.

Well that was my thought as well. Seems sketchy AF especially for a guy new to fishing and boating. I took him out this fall to Sandheads and he said "I'm buying a boat". Wasn't what I had in mind.

Tell him to test drive it in the ocean and back up in some waves and then he will see for himself how that boat belongs on the river
like the name says River Hawk, my last 16' had a transom like that and man i had to run back in all the time from changing waters

Guess it depends on how good of a buddy he is !!

Would say the centre console Cope would be a better option. That River chicken is definitely an inside waters boat but that doesn't mean you can't fish further out when nature allows you. Just watch the conditions and pick your days. If you're out there and worried about water coming over the transom, you're already passed the time when you should have gone in. Reeltime is the guy to talk to about fishing Van in an open boat. I'd follow his advice.

 

[Fisherman Rob]

That Cope is nice, but is overpriced at $14,500 for a 1992 hull without any electronics and "re-built" two stroke. I'd start at around $8k max, but then he'd likely think it's a low ball.

 

[Bifmalibu]

I'd want a full height transom on that Riverhawk myself. But that hull would pound like crazy in a chop. I wouldn't want to take it in the chuck. The Cope is overpriced imo.

With the very shallow V, it will plane very easily so the power should be okay especially for a 1 motor boat...troll all day etc on the main engine. Like all boats that size, he will have to pick his days on the ocean accordingly. Should be a terrific lake boat.

 

[Fisherman Rob]

The window appears to hing down at the top of the console. I'd check the structural integrity of that as it appears to be a smallish hinge. I'm guessing there would be a bit of wind force on that at speed.

It’s shiny and new looking... IMO for $15k a boat like mine is what you want. Handles the chop. Low hour Yamaha 90 with a 9.9 HT kicker. Full stand up new canvas top and it loves getting blood in it.

Been listed many times, he tried for a share ownership set up a few times too. The Hull Truth is not kind to that boat.

I agree
