I've owned my 1984 cuddy since 2004. I'm at least the third owner. The owner immediately prior to me only had it for 1 year. It's outfitted with an 2002 200hp Mercury V6.

This is my 20th summer with my '84 cuddy with a 2002 200hP Mercury Saltwater. It has served me well. I always wonder thought for how much longer though! It's the perfect boat for Narragansett Bay.
