Anyone own a Hewescraft Sportsman 160?

Just curious what you think of it. Thinking about one myself.

What’s your intended use case?

Sorry I didn't see this earlier.  I have one.  I've had it for 12 years.  I love it.  Fish out of port Angeles and Freshwater Bay.  Running Yamahas.  70hp and an 8hp.  Very economical and problem free.

If you get the 16' then you may have to deal with the "two footitis" issue!

I never have got that feeling.   I don't have the rear jump seats.  Tons of room.

Getting an 18' didn't seem to resolve the issue for me.

16' isn't a bad option, I had one of a different flavor for about 5 years and killed a bunch of fish but will say if you can bump up to 18' you have quite a bit more capability or at least fewer white knuckle days.
