I would look at cats.... Not very fast but they can get pretty skinny and handle some serious slop. I've even seen trolling motors mounted on the baycats

Cajun Hunter 03, I think that is his screen name, just got a Haynie 24' cat. PM him

They run twin vees too but most of the big names down there run Freeman cats yellowfins and a few run invincibles

if money is really no option a good boat for inshore and a overnighter would be a gause built. do a lil research on them and you will find lots of info. drafts shallow and is offshore capable.

No I hardly see any twinvees anymore, saw 4 freemans, prolly 20 glacier bays, and a handful of world cats .

Saw on when I was tarpon fishin in boca grande ... That boat was prime!!

Maybe a Yellowfin 23 CC? 18 inch draft from of an "offshore" boat for your trips to the weirs....although if I had anything with the name "Yellowfin" on it, it wouldn't come within 100 yards of those rocks, and it looks like it has enough room in front of the console to pitch a tent for spending the night in the gulf!! LOL....but seriously though....

2 words............Cape Horn!!

He didn't ask for the wettest boat Tim

Having had my Haynie cat for 3 weeks now I love it handles the chop great Had it 48 miles last week Drove 143 total miles burned 41 gals Made it throught the weirs last week got in the marsh rode it 8 inches of water went past crab pots the were out of the water Was able to jump it up in 11 inches of water with basically no prob

Thats awesome :smokin:

Agreed....that is impressive for a 24' boat

man you just got that boat. id be to scared to scratch it running that shallow. i guess you have to break it in one day.

shallow sport 27 latitude single tunnel. Runs in spit and can go 100+ out. And is made in Texas.

:*****::funny::amen:

this might be what you're after....just gonna need a 72volt 140lb thrust trolling motor...fine boat in my opinion though

i got the perfect boat (for me anyway)
leaving tonight to go pick it up world cat 266 sc

Look at a used Twin Vee, most fishing room and best ride i've seen. Friends have the 26 and 36. 22 or 26 run shallow ride great and get great mileage. Cats don't need as much power as mono hulls because there is less drag with less hull in the water. If you want to do both offshore and inshore, These are great no nonsense boats.
