Post skiff vs standard mud boat
So whats the benefit of the skiff? Obviously you can poke through trees and tall vegetation better but does it handle better? in waves, turning, etc..

The skiff is loved by those who grew up runnin them...

But.... If you want a great first rig get a semi pointed bateau
in about the 18x48 size range --- it is a lot easier to drive...

If you have to ask about if you need a skiff you dont need a skiff.

i personally dont own a skiff but the low rake is gunna bite in rough water, its kinda like ridin a hydroslide in choppy water.
