The 18' boat with the Big Attitude
What do you get when you blend classic, time-tested craftsmanship and cutting edge design? The all-new F-18 Series skiff from Fly Boatworks -- a boat that epitomizes versatile performance. Let's be honest, no two days on the water are ever the same. Tides and winds change constantly, and as an angler you need an edge in an ever-changing environment. Meet the F-18 Series. An eighteen foot technical skiff with the chop-devouring attitude of a bay boat combined with the shallow-draft, stealth and easy-to-pole dexterity of much smaller flats boats, the F-18 will push the boundaries of all your fishing pursuits.
Don't let the big water keep you from your destination... The Cape Fear River, Charleston Harbor, Tampa Bay; these open water bays are now navigated with surprising smoothness. Break out the push pole for stealth mode so that tailing reds, lurking snook and laid up tarpon are unaware as you pole within fly range. And, after a successful day on the flats, the ride back to the ramp can be just as thrilling. Whether navigating oyster-laden mud flats or a mangrove-lined serpentine ditch, our trademark hull with HydroLock™ inverted strakes will leave you grinning at the realization that your exceptionally capable flats skiff moonlights as an aquatic sports car. With the F-18, YOU CAN GO THERE. |
