Howdy all,
Currently live in Nevada, but considering getting back to the PNW. I'm a Seattle area native. We're tentatively looking at houses on the Vancouver side of the river.
Whatever we end up getting, I'm going to have storage for a boat. Most of my past experience has been in fairly deep V ocean boats in the 20-26' range. Looking at some videos of folks fishing the Columbia, it looks like it can get some pretty heavy weather that pops up.
Do you think an 18-20' medium V with an outboard prop would be sufficient? Would likely get a hard or soft top so the missus doesn't have to sit out in the rain all day (you know the drill)
Currently driving a Toyota Tacoma so I don't think I'm going to be hauling any offshore 24' boats.
Something like this looks like it might be ideal? I could take it up to Puget sound as well.
