Now don't and go buy that Yak just yet! Here is a Hybrid Paddle and Polling Skiff with the advantages of both, and well within the same price range of your typical fishing Yak. This so you can reach places and also fish, where the Gators crawl and Ducks swim ;)

Well thought design for the truck in fisherman, or as another option to your main skiff for places (with stability and safety) others simply cannot reach. Slick setup and you can find out more about them here: https://www.skanu.com/

And do let them know (Kevin and the Gang) that the guys from Flats Nation Dot Com sent you if you reach out to them!

Tight Lines!

East Cape as you may have heard, is working on a Rotomolded version of the Skanu (Awesome) and many if not most of us here, all know the advantages of such :cool:

Nice shot to give you a size comparison with an EVO in the background :D

And was just thinking how good of a platform this would be for stupid skinny water (no fins like a Yak or SUP) and not just Fishing, but for Outdoor / Wildlife Photography work with much less fear of all of your expensive camera / video gear getting wet (or worse) by having that freeboard. I just just picture my Tri Pod in place on that forward deck already!

One way to set up your trolling motor which would more than likely drag you around all day, like a Poodle would a rag doll ;)

Pretty impressive stability at the same time, since that is no small child there on the Bow!

A couple of more shots of the Skanu demonstrating the built in stability she has from this excellent, and very forward thinking design from Kevin, Marc :cool: and the Team over at East Cape!

Simply awesome work Guys, and we are very happy to help feature this newer product and product line, for them here :cool:

And Kevin and I are going to discuss this newer product aspect (Lids and Trays) further on a SKANU Podcast in the very near future... We just need to work out the logistics on recording it and increasing the sound quality at the same time :cool:

The latest video on the Roto Molded version of the SKANU just off of the Production line...


Looks great and planning on getting some more pictures and information when I visit the EC Shop next week :cool: Speaking of such, if you have any questions for the Kevin, Marc or the rest of the gang at East Cape, just send me a PM and will be most happy to cover it with them ;)
 
Time for a little fishing after work, but not enough time to hitch up the Big Skiff / Boat? Then his might be your answer to that problem!

Looks like a Awesome little Skinny Water Paddle Craft / Weapon there! And Kevin has advised me, that they are getting more of them into the Company, so wait times should not be as bad as before :cool:

And if you are trying to get back into places like this...

155463033_258299099093396_2058260631403302307_o.jpg

I cannot think of many craft that are as well designed for such as the Skanu ;)

156202244_258299095760063_4150168497953987833_o.jpg

And not just for fishing either! Outdoor Photography or Duck Hunting (maybe Gator if you are real brave) could also employ this craft for such pursuits :cool:

And Kevin now has some custom made Push Pole in Stock in for the Skanu (awesome)

Kevin and the team now have some options posted up for the Skanu that might like to add to yours and you can find them here:

https://www.skanu.com/collections/options

One of those that I feel would come in real handy for the guy or gal trying to get it from the Truck / SUV to the water is this one...

The Holidays will be upon us soon and it would make for a nice Christmas Present for yourself or others in your family! You could always get it for them and then used it yourself (Bait ans Switch) for sure LOL :p
