(For Oars or Outboard Motor)
For general use, under a wide variety of conditions, it would be difficult to find a better hull than this V-bottomed outboard skiff. Adapted for use on any water--river, lake, and ocean-- the skiff type of hull is eminently seaworthy and carries a heavy load safely. The lapstreak construction of this skiff has many advantages, not the least of which is its light weight, approximately 225 pounds, which makes the completed craft easy to transport by trailer. This bot is stiff, immensely strong and durable. It doesn't require soaking, being always ready for use. The laps formed by the bottom contribute considerably to speedy performance, as well as helping to eliminate excess spray. The V-bottomed skiff is usable with any outboard motor, from one horespower up to and including the most powerful made. The speed will range from five to forty-five miles an hour, depending on the type of motor used. The craft can be rowd easily, despite its ample proportions, and five to seven persons can be safely accomoded in the roomy seats.
