Sorry, I'm not a fan of Polar boats, though I haven't looked at new ones
for some years. When I did look, it was at their knockoffs of Carolina
Skiffs, and I thought the Polars were, in comparison, bottom of the
barrel. Maybe they've improved over the years.



Are we talking about the same boats? It's my understanding that
they've only been making these boats for four - maybe five years. At
the time I looked at them, they only made a 19, 21 and 23 CC plus the
20 bay boat.

As to being Carolina Skiff knockoffs, I know Carolina Skiffs - these
aren't Carolina Skiffs. :)


I believe the company has or had a line of flat-bottomed skiffs similar
to Carolina Skiffs. Single hull, rolled edges, spatter-paint finish
interior. Anyway, this was some years ago, early 90s. Things may have
changed.


I talked to the Marketing Manager for Godfrey at the Norwalk In-water
Boat Show a couple of years ago - she said these were new designs.

I dunno.

Later,

Tom
