I built this 16' all cypress crawfish skiff and installed GTR23 for power. Look closely at details which I think some will appreciate.  The bottom and 6" up the sides are encased In 6 oz fiberglass and epoxy.  I holed it late last hunting season but what I hit would have holed a steel hull.  Runs nicely after installing Smarttabs.

Looks like it gets to them....

How do those trim tabs work for you ?

I assume they are spring loaded and raise up at WOT ?

Thanks. I tried to get fancy with the upload but don't know crap about HTML vs img bs code

yes, those are compression tabs caled Smart Tabs...no hydraulics, no actuators... Works great. The public fluke site to which u linked shows construction details.

Great job. My memories of my first boating experiences was in a 15' cypress bateau that an ol guy in Bell River made in the early 60s for my dad. We went through a couple bottoms and several outboards over the year on that thing.

Welcome to MMT....

That's a nice piece of old world craftmanship....

Is it a working boat or pleasure ?
