Loyalty Speaks Volumes
Meet
Bill & Mary , daughters Karen and Sharron
This family has
owned several offshore fishing boats including Stamas and Formula, to
name a couple. However, since 1969 they have owned and fished Skipjacks
- a Skipjack 20, 24, 262 and look forward to launching their new 30 Flybridge
– that’s over 30 years of product loyalty!
Why
Skipjack?
"Skipjack
is designed by a fisherman who knows what a fisherman wants! I have fished
a Skipjack for over thirty years and I have been satisfied with every
boat. You couldn’t ask for a better boat for offshore fishing. The best
days of my life were fishing the 262 in Baja, Mexico. My wife and I would
take off for four and five day trips. We fished like crazy. Getting to
the fish is no problem at 25 knots, and averaging 3 mpg gives us amazing
range.
The
visibility is phenomenal. Spotting activity - birds, boils or fins - was
easy on the flying bridge where eye level is about 11 feet off the water. Once you’re
hit (and I don’t know of another line of boats with the reputation for
raising fish that Skipjack has), you have a flush cockpit where four people
can comfortably fight fish from. Remember we are on a 26 foot boat! The
big fish boxes in the cockpit provide easy access for the night’s menu. To top it off,
not only do you have every fisherman’s dream, but you also have the amenities
to stay out on the open ocean for days, in comfort!
What
does a fisherman want in a boat?
Dependability,
speed, low maintenance, uncluttered space – Skipjack, the boat a fisherman
designed and built. I should know after over 30 years catching fish on
one.
