Flats, Bay, Reef or Sandbar? You Choose!
Our Guide 20 walks the line perfectly between a flats boat and a bay boat. She’s one of a very few boats on the market that makes as much sense with a T-top as with a poling platform. Her static draft is competitive with that of most flats boats, but her high bow, sharp entry and standup console yield far greater rough water comfort and safety.
Three-piece construction provides plenty of space under the gunwales for rods and spearguns, while a dedicated forward locker accommodates cast nets, and a separate anchor locker holds plenty of line for fishing reefs and wrecks. The 25-gallon aft baitwell is flanked by storage and rigging compartments and can be supplemented with an optional leaning post livewell for even more bait capacity.
