NEW - 2024 River Skiff Hybrid
Hull Profile Description:
The Boulder Boat Works River Skiff is our adaptation of the classic pram style drift boat with a more pronounced Boulder rocker profile making for the most agile skiff on the market. The blunt nose design, long centerline, and 78” beam opens the interior of the boat up and provides the most spacious boat in our fleet with a ton of real estate for gear, coolers, or your favorite boat dog. Our signature rocker profile allows the boat to stay nimble and agile enough to handle swifter and pushier water. The longer wet line and our pronounced chines help hold your line with little effort making the River Skiff an ideal boat for those slower tailwater rivers with prevalent wind.
Model Description:
The Hybrid is our workhorse skiff model with a walkaround front seating position (with a cooler or dry box) and double rod tray design with various tray sizing options that provides clean/flat rod storage and additional workspace in the cockpit. The 70/30 oarsman dry storage box provides ample storage space to keep the essentials concealed while still providing access while seated.
Construction Overview:
Hull: Our hand welded hulls are designed and built to withstand the toughest conditions at the lowest of waters. The natural buoyancy, flexibility, and quiet nature are all major benefits of our signature lightweight sand shade polymer hull. These benefits of our HDPE hull are what sets Boulder Boat Works boats apart from other manufacturers.
Structure: The white ash wood components have all been finished with Linex throughout, providing extra durability and eliminating the refinishing maintenance of our bright (epoxy/varnish) finish wood components. The rest of our interior polymer components throughout the boat are hand milled and welded to provide a uniform look and lightweight feel of the boat. Stainless steel hardware is used throughout the boat to eliminate any corrosion or rust.
