The landing told me 15 is max load for overnighters. I've been watching her overnighters & she's been doing as well or better than everyone else. She has also been out with 10 anglers on a couple occasions. I'll probly try her before the season's out. The only reason I quit riding the Phoenix for 3/4 days was that I got tired of the cancelled trips (one with 7 people signed up!) & started going over to Seaforth. I always had an excellent time on the Phoenix. No, she's not the Excel, but I doubt you'd be riding the Excel with 14 other fishermen! :D
