I Had a 1983 15 CC with a Honda 50 on it.
I bought a 1997 17 Outrage this past spring. Although the boat is "only" 2 feet longer, I would say the 17 is more then twice the boat.
I really liked my 15, but it was a bit small.
My opinion of the 17 is that it is a great 1 person boat if you don't have a companion going out with you.
Compared to other boats I have had and currently have, if I was to downsize it would be for a 17 Montauk.
BTW, my 15 was a great riding boat, even in small craft ocean waters.
