now that looks like a nice rig, price?

A test drive introduces a new level in performance with no bow rise on take-off. We call it “Even Keel.” This first in bay boat
design fills a need to launch in skinny water without
trimming the engine up. It also helps stabilize the
hull while under way.

Got some draft to it...looks like a very refined and functional fishing vessel...

speck-chaser 10-12-2009 06:13 PM

great looking boat.Looks like it wont take much to get that on step. Like to know what it would do with a 300 hanging on the back.

longsidelandry 10-12-2009 06:26 PM

Man that is one fine boat.

I used to have a Cape Horn 19 back in the day before they were popular in the late 90's. I heard Chris Fabro and the Cape Horn guys went under. Anyway....

My Cape Horn was stout and clean but a light and wet ride. It was fast but couldn't take much rough water. I had a T-top and a 200 and still did 55. Very plain but well made boat. It'll be expensive and look hand made - if they still make 'em in Milton, FL. Panhandlers swear by 'em. I bought mine in 1993 before any of the dealers had 'em. I had trouble selling it in 95 so I brought back to Pensacola and sold it in two weeks.

I like the line, though. Clean topsides and clean rear. I bet it is fast but wet on the lake.

I run a Cape Horn 19 now..............LOVE IT!!! wouldn't trade it for this new one.......BUT wouldn't mind a bit more motor............Mine rides like a dream........is it wet?? May as well throw a bucket of water in your own face before you leave the launch.............Can't have it all..........Right??

catch.and.fillet 10-12-2009 07:24 PM

Is Fabro still making the 19? I heard they only make 24's and longer and that the 16/17/19/21 line fell into third party hands. I liked mine too. But had to sell it when I moved.

Dink 10-12-2009 07:26 PM

They still hand make all their own boats, you can go out there, knock on the door, and take a tour of the joint......I have the "older style" hull..........newer ones are very dry..........They say this bay is dry too, that's the most bow flair I've seen on a boat, besides the Polar Bay

CatDaddy 10-12-2009 10:41 PM

NICE!!!!

Daddy Like!!!

T-Red 10-13-2009 07:31 AM

our rigs over here need GOM capability tho

Jordan 10-23-2009 09:50 AM

thats a nice boat

Slidellkid 11-06-2009 08:48 AM

Cape Horn's have become really expensive. Of course, they last for a very long time and hold their value really well so it's all relative. That is a nice boat.

I love the Blazer Bay's, fished out of one in Grand Isle and decided that when/if I'm able to get a bigger boat, that's what I'd like to go with.
