My first boat was a 21" walk around because I thought it would be nice to have a place for the wife to get out of the weather and go to the head. What a waste it was. The cabin ended up being a place to store more fishing stuff and life jackets. I'd much rather have the room to fish rather than the cabin space. My dad and I now have a 23 CC and there's plenty of room in the console for the porta potti (which still never gets used) and storing extra rods, tackle, etc... Plus it's much better for plugging with the extra room at the bow. My wife only goes out on bluebird days, so there's no need for a cabin to get out of the weather. Think about what you're going to be using the boat for most and focus on getting something that best suits those needs.
