Research 2012 - Hewes Boats - Redfisher 16

The Redfisher 16 is the most value you will ever find in a back country boat. It has the famous ride, and all the fishing-smart features of the bigger Hewes, and the benefits of big performance with smaller power options.

The Redfisher 16 is the most versatile back country boat for the money on the market. The Redfisher 16 runs shallow and with power options up to 115-hp and fuel capacity of 30 gallons, it has the range and speed to run a long way into the back country in a short time. This easy-to-trailer, easy-to-maintain, easy-to-pole back country boat is not only a great buy with a high resale value; it's a comfortable, safe family boat as well. Best of all, this Redfisher 16 has the unmistakable smooth, dry ride of a genuine Hewes.
