Default wanted to show yall a boat youve never seen.
This is a 16' Delta Craft...60" wide. Its rated for a 70 max.


Now for the fun part they quit making it about 5 or so years ago. Its perfect for rivers...mobile bay...rig fishing...etc...

Its currently in at my house and belongs to a good friend that is going thru a divorce.



I









They made them locally and are in very high demand. They stopped building them and this boat will get 45to5g easy in my area. X

they used to build "High Tide" boats around here, very similar boat to the type you posted. they closed up shop a few years ago. The hottest boat of that type around here is the Bentz Craft, there weren't many built, and they bring a premium among locals

Actually it's quite different from an Amesbury Skiff. The AS is only rated for a max of 25hp and has a flat bottom.

the Bentz craft is the ticket, I've had duck hunters tell me thye were the best duck boat ever made. I've seen people run thru [puddles of water keeping them on plane. They were designed and built by Earl Bentz's (Stratos, Javelin bass boat fame) cousin. They have a pad bottom and have lot of fishabillelity for the size. If you find one around here that's in good shape, they bring a premium

heres a 16 with a 90 on it up for sale http://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa...356&acctid=685
