Overview
The Crestliner 1650 Sport Angler is designed with a dedicated fishing layout while incorporating the comforts desired in a family boat. It features a full windshield with a convenient walk-through, providing protection in foul weather and enhancing usability. This model is gaining popularity among anglers for its combination of fishability and versatility.
Exterior Design and Fishing Features
The 1650 Sport Angler is built on Crestliner's SuperHawks hull design, featuring an extruded gunwale system and a true V 11-degree uni-weld reverse chine hull that delivers excellent speed and handling. The bow offers a spacious area ideal for casting, baiting, and working fish, with deep sides that improve safety and provide a drier ride. Pedestal seats can be positioned in five different locations, including the bow and stern casting decks. Practical features include a task light integrated into the back of the bow navigation light for night baiting, a trolling motor receptacle with dedicated storage for the foot control, and a locker designed specifically for the trolling motor battery. Additional storage is available through port and starboard drawers for tackle boxes and gear, and a 27-gallon live well is situated across the back of the bow section.
Helm and Cockpit Layout
The helm station is spacious and thoughtfully arranged, with ample room to the right of the gauges for installing electronics such as fish finders or depth finders. The ignition is conveniently located to the left of the wheel, which is surrounded by brushed metal-look plastic accents. The instrument cluster includes Mercury SmartKraft instrumentation positioned prominently above the wheel. Circuit breakers and rocker switches are easily accessible to the right, along with a fold-away cup holder. The helm area offers generous legroom, storage beneath the wheel, and a 12-volt DC receptacle for portable devices. The companion side features additional legroom, a fire extinguisher, a two-section glove box, sturdy plastic-coated grab handles, a folding cup holder, and a lockable side locker for rods and gear. Large floor drains ensure the cockpit remains dry in wet conditions. The stern casting deck provides ample space for working fish, with storage compartments beneath the starboard and port lockers housing the cranking battery.
Dimensions and Construction
Measuring 16 feet 3 inches in length with an 87-inch beam, the 1650 Sport Angler has a robust aluminum hull weighing approximately 1,000 pounds. It is rated to accommodate outboard engines up to 115 horsepower, offering flexibility depending on performance needs.
Power and Performance
The test model was equipped with a 90 horsepower Mercury Optimax outboard, running on fresh water with Laser II stainless steel propellers and carrying two persons on board. At a cruising speed of approximately 3,000 RPM, the boat achieved 24.2 miles per hour while consuming 2.6 gallons of fuel per hour. The top speed reached 43.8 miles per hour at 5,400 RPM, with a fuel burn of 7.6 gallons per hour. Fuel capacity allows for an estimated range of 142 miles at cruising speed and 88 miles at top speed.
Conclusion
The Crestliner 1650 Sport Angler successfully blends a dedicated fishing platform with family-friendly features and comfort. Its thoughtful design, solid construction, and commendable performance make it a strong contender in its class. Prospective buyers are encouraged to visit a dealer to experience the boat firsthand.
