Flat Bottom Boats

Flat Bottom Boats

A flat-bottomed boat is a boat with a flat bottomed, two-chined hull, which allows it be used in shallow bodies of water, such as rivers, because it is less likely to ground.

The flat hull also makes the boat more stable in calm water, which is good for hunters and anglers. However this design becomes less stable in choppy water. This is because it causes the boat to travel on the water, instead of through it, as a boat with a rounded or V-shaped hull would.

Flat hulls are simple to construct, making them popular with boat-building hobbyists.

In Britain they came to popular notice during the Planned French Invasion of Britain in 1759, when a large-number of flat-bottomed boats were prepared by the French to ferry their invasion force across the channel and a number were destroyed during the British Raid on Le Havre. The flat-bottoms are mentioned in the song Heart of Oak written by David Garrick during 1759.

Grady White

One of the most successful boatbuilding companies in the world, Grady-White Boats has a legendary reputation for designing and producing outstanding fiberglass boats. Since 1959, Grady-Whites have been built in Greenville, NC. And since purchasing the company in 1968, owner and CEO Eddie Smith steadily has done what he does best: inspire his crew to work hard to provide customers the best quality, reliability, safety, performance and long lasting value. In large part Grady-Whites success is due to developing close relationships with its customers and dealerships, asking questions of and carefully listening to boat owners, and incorporating features theyve requested to create fun products that make many happy memories. The quest for being "the ultimate in boating satisfaction" is the basis for the management style promoted by current company president, Kris Carroll.
Though Grady-Whites commitment to excellence never changes, the company constantly refines its boats as technology develops. Thats one reason why in 2008 Grady-White was ranked "Highest in Customer Satisfaction with Coastal Fishing Boats (17–30 feet), Seven Times in a Row."*—and has received this designation each time to date that J.D. Power and Associates has conducted studies in this marine market segment.

TUFFY engineers saw a need for boats designed for serious fishermen and filled it, beginning a tradition of developing fishing boats designed for a specific purpose, meeting the angler’s needs in the Mid West. Today, every TUFFY built represents a constant evolution of refinements from hull design, overall performance, interior features, durability and care to detail in ‘fishing only’ designs that have become a TUFFY trademark.

In 1978, the MARAUDER hull was introduced. The MARAUDER hull is a sponsoned (modified) V-hull that provides a drier ride and unmatched stability. Low profile, close to the water, stable and roomy, the MARAUDER hull was the choice of more professional muskie guides than any other boat. This same design runs today in the full line of TUFFY low profile boats from the spacious ESOX MAGNUM to the ESOX.

Aluminum Boat

Aluminum Boat

Most government boats are made of aluminium. Luxury yachts are made of this material. Statistically half of USA’s boats are aluminium built. There are quite a few reasons for this choice. Some of the small sized aluminium boats have thin-hull and are fastened with rivets. They are great for rivers as well as salt water navigation. They are extremely lightweight. So carrying them is never a problem. This also ensures that these boats provide excellent speed and less fuel consumption. Heavy boats on the other hand consume gallons of fuel.Fiberglass boats are made up of petroleum based chemicals which are combustible in nature. This is not the case with aluminium boats. The aluminium ones do not catch fire easily and is absolutely safe for your family. Aluminium is corrosion resistant and lasts long. You can take the boat to a fishing trip in salt water as well. Salt corrodes fiberglass quickly. Another important factor is that you can customize your aluminium boats easily. Cut, drill and weld and you get your boat the way you would like to design it. With computer images you can draw the sketches and pre-design it the way you have always dreamt about it.
