Manufacturer Provided Description

The Longliner 16 has been in production for over 35 years. Well over 3500 of this classic have been built and it has become the first choice of serious fishermen who appreciate the great seakeeping and long keel which enable Longliners to drift comfortably and lie well at anchor. There are chunky bilge keels to aid stability and beach launching, and the stiff but light hull means low horsepower engines, low capacity trailers, and low fuel consumption - adding to low cost boating without sacrificing seaworthiness.

Standard Features

• Traditional lines and simple construction
