Watch the penny saver papers, craigslist and just keep your eyes open as you drive down the street and see a lonely on in a back / side yard. Exactly! You'd be surprised how many serviceable boats are out back "keeping the rain off the firewood." I live in Kitchener Ont, and My cottage is 4 hours away, but you'd be surprised how hard it is to find something used that will work. And also without a motor.

A big flat bottom skiff, wide, high sides like this sounds like the deal for you if you can find one. Of course I can tell you how to build one for less than 500 bucks too but that's another story ![]() will travel 15-20+ mph depending on trim and load. They do pound hard in a chop, and with only a slight rake on the sides, they are kind of wet. But that's the tradeoff for the space, speed, and cost. MIne is just a simple plywood skiff, built in my backyard. Like I said, I have a 25horse console steering engine on now, I love it. Scotty from SmallBoats.com RowdyMouseRacing.com ![]() |

You will not get high speeds, maybe less than 10 mph. |
