Boat Description

Introducing the 1978 Newport 16, complete with a trailer and an electric trolling motor, along with two batteries and a charger. This boat is in excellent condition and remarkably clean. Its performance and handling are noteworthy, featuring a 200 lb swing keel that ensures self-righting stability, giving sailors confidence even in choppy waters. Many users praise its ease of handling, making it perfect for solo sailing or small crews; it tends to round up in strong winds rather than capsize. The swing keel also allows for shallow water sailing and hassle-free trailering. With a calculated hull speed of 5.0 knots, the Newport 16 boasts a spacious cockpit and is quick to rig, making it an enjoyable sailing experience. Additionally, the centerboard enhances stability and ease of handling. Enjoy a serene cruising experience with its electric trolling motor, and make memories with friends or family, thanks to its ample seating and great performance under sail.
