I havent seen, nor rowed, a CLC annapolis wherry, so I really cant say.

But the Cosine Wherry is a really nice rowboat. It tracks real straight, rowing with only one oar ( what's that they say - one oar in the water? never mind...) it has a turning radius of about 50 feet. Mine is a little heavy, at 110#. I have yet to have a boat come in at design weight. I dont use it all that much anymore, sometimes for trout fishing is about it. Funny - I have a powerboat sitting outside, and a rowboat, and two sinngle kayaks and a double. And a borrowed whitewater kayak. Guess what I take when I head out to the water?

: Just curious: what are these designs like vs. CLC Annapolis Wherry? Assume
: some tradeoffs, since the boats look quite different.
