Not changing my channel content. This skiff is the same size as my kayak. I will not stop fishing from my kayak. After the honeymoon is over with the micro-skiff there’ll be an even mix of videos from both platforms. I will not alienate the the audience that has helped me to get where I am today.

Man, she is very nice 👍 Great quality in her build. If I were the designer, I would have moved the aft platform closer to the helm and put a livewell under the companies round logo in it's center area. And a steering wheel on the console. There is enough room for both the steering wheel, and the locator of your choice! At my age I surely don't need to be standing up on any kind of platform just to pole or sight cast! 😝 All in all, a very nice little skiff! 👍 Congrats on getting her!

Beautiful boat!

Mark congratulations on your first boat, good luck with it. Just don't overthink it, get a little time on the water first. I have owned a number of boats over the years and watched people buy all kinds of equipment and gadgets they didn't need. Best advice I can give is to get the state/coastguard required stuff first. Then get used the boat, experience will determine what you you need. This is a big step up from a kayak, I know I fish out of a Outback, but room and added weight is still a major concern. Take your time, it will pay off in the long run.

Make sure you join some Facebook groups, especially the boat fails groups. When I went from a Hobie to a used ‘99 19’ Shoalwater Stealth, I learned so much just from those pages. You’ll see recommendations for transform savers, lots people say to not attach anything to the trailer. Good luck!

Mark, thank you for your service first and foremost. Secondly, never owned a boat, could not afford it but now I am really looking at this skiff. Can you tell me the wind speeds one would need to be cognizant of when monitoring the weather and taking her out? Thanks in advance. Love your videos.

@@MDLRFishing Thanks for the reply. Since it has such a low profile was curious about wind speed and thus wave height potential.

Very nice. Looks high quality to me. All the videos about it show high speed cruising and hardly holding on, but none show it hitting a boat wake. My 13 foot Boston Whaler Sport will go airborne if I’m going over 20 knots.

Just to let you know, you can put a short piece of two by four parallel with the transom held in place under the motor bracket with a bungee cord as an option. A little tip from cajun land in Louisiana. Good Luck!
