I'm looking for input here other Whaler owners, I currently have a 1994 15' Dauntless, beautiful boat 70HP Johnson original. I'm thinking of selling it and jumping up to a 2001 Dauntless 16' with 90HP 2 Stroke Merc. I know there are a lot of differences in the boats, I just want hear hear/know the pros & cons from you all? The 160 is also like new, low hours - fishing package, bimini top, ski pillon ect; I can buy it for $12K or less. Please site all the differences you guys can come up with.

(moderator note: a 2001 Dauntless is a 16', not a 160)
