Last year I bought an Alumacraft Navigator 165 with a 90 hp Mercury. It tows just fine behind my 4.0 - 6 cyl. Explorer, although I slow down a bit going up Parley's Canyon. At a total boat-motor-trailer-gear weight at or a little above 2,000#, it is an easy tow. I cannot speak for the Fisherman 160, but the Navigator 165 is totally awesome! Solid as a rock and lots of attention to detail. It's my fourth boat and by far the best by a long margin.
