The last frontier of fishing is extremely shallow. Regardless if you're as far flung as the Turks & Caicos or state-side in Florida, to safely navigate these areas both the shallowest of skiffs & extensive local knowledge are needed.
These two elements, the captain & their boat, provide access to the last refuge of fishing and boating. Guarded by expansive shallows, coral marl, or oyster bars & is known simply as the "Backcountry," it remains a place to rediscover yourself. Whether in gin clear waters chasing tailing bonefish off East Caicos or muscling redfish and snook from their lairs in the tannic brown water of Chokoloskee, much of the vessels & gear remains the same.
This channel focuses on the experiences found in the backcountry & the gear that we use to get there (and more importantly back out), shared through weekly posts of varying content. Heavily focused on Fishing, Camping & Exploring the areas that a tiller powered micro skiff provides access...
ENJOY!!!

Nice tidy build.Great job !
Many thanks, and sorry for the delay! I am looking a building another in about a year or so and will definitely make it simpler, stronger and more functional, so probably even tidy'er! There are many ways to minimize corners, cuts and complicated transitions helping cut down on both wood and glassing work. The idea is to get this to the point of about 10 sheets of plywood that can be CNC'ed, 17oz cloth (biaxial one site, chop matt the other, and put together with minimal finish work. I will always prefer epoxy, generally speaking but, in the islands this one may have to be poly...
@@TillerMicroSkiffs Biax. Glass is excellent material to add strength , stiffness and efficiency to a build , both in economy of labor & material (and therefore) overall cost . I notice there seems to be more use of it these days. Things are always improving . Epoxy is the way I think.👍 I`m sure your next one will be even better. Great job !
Nice clips 👌
Thanks! Working on getting more right now...
Wow amzing no grzy up2 k
Thanks! Yeah old phone pics made it only the 2k resolution it has... didn't ever intend for it to be on the internet. Going to do another in about a year. So 4k or more, coming soon...
Do you have numbers for the prop on your F25? What RPM did you get? Max Seped? Prop Pitch? Thanks!
Solas 3233-100-09, right at 25mph @ 5800rpm loaded, 9" pitch
Take me there!
Provo is only a flight away...
did u have plans for this build
In short, no. The boat at the beginning with the old 25hp was the first one my father built. I sort of patterned off that boat but, I am putting plans into ACAD to help design of the next one...
@@TillerMicroSkiffs that would help us newbees a lot if u share it plans, i find i can follow even ikea lol keep up the good work i guess it was 16 ft long as 2 sheets plywood and 4 ft across at transom the width of i sheet of plywood if you could describe how you got the flare at the middle to the bow ie curve even a quick paper sketch
@johnmurphy9172 No, but could get you something rough as I patterned it off the old boat. Basically, I used 3 stations I patterned off the old boat transom. The secret to the bow is to bend both sides at the same time to get it even. I think I have the sketch I had to provide the state to get it registered. I will redo the video with some graphics in the future. FYI, check with your state. If it is under 16 feet, no inspections are needed in FL on homemade boats...
Can you share the boats dimensions please? Also how does it cruise with the 20? I imagine it acts like a semi displacement hull ….. does well at displacement speeds but gets up and goes like a planing hull when you need it to! I’m your last video you were ripping! Cheers!
20ft by just shy of 4ft wide and has about a 20" transom. You're exactly right about the boat. Really no bow rise getting on "plane" and with some positive angle on the engine trim and she'll carve like a Gheenoe. 👍
Really digging this setup! 🙌🏼Thanks for sharing!
Glad you appreciate it, you got some really neat boat builds too!
Loving this video and skiff! Thanks for sharing! 👊🏼
Thanks! It took a lot of work. I put together the videos I made for the build: th-cam.com/play/PLlPnjJESf1yhmcQbBiVE0hrVolQouGm16.html
You opened the messaging up lol finally
Took a little while to figure out the global settings to change but it seems like it's working now!
Do they make a suv 14?! Can’t find any info on it also you on instagram man love your content!
Yep the SUV 14 isn't as popular as the 17 and it is one of their older molds, you just have to ask Erin on older hulls they no longer advertise for, they do make a few...
Im trying to get a long term rental in Provo. Hopefully. If I do I’ll see u on the water
Sounds good. Apologies for the delay, I just figured out how my comments work...
