Hi you all, I just joined and I am a new 09 skiff owner. I have boated for more years than I care say, I just sold my twin vee 22 ft boat, needed to down size. I loved the boat but getting older and I boat alone alot and it was a pain loading that boat alone. I have owned a carolina skiff in the past so it will be interesting to compare the two boats. I got this boat from Hooked on the Bay it was the first skiff they received from the factory it has a 75 Honda. I live in Harford county Md., most of my boating is at the head of the bay, the flats, Bush and Gun powder Rivers. I put it over today and put a couple hours on the boat breaking in the engine. Caught a couple rock fish (striped Bass), I can already tell it rides alot better than the 19 carolina skiff. After I get more hours I'll give a report. I will post pictures when I figure out how to do so.
