My new "Native Culture 15" is a locally built simple light weight skiff that is 15' long and 60" wide at the water line.
It is a foot longer and 10" wider than my old skiff I got from Cortland Rep Joe Patterson.
I am using my tiller Yamaha 40hp 4 stroke off my old boat because you can not find a new motor right now.
Right where the ice chest and grab bar that are in these photos will be replaced with a pedestal seat.
I will have a new Minn Kota 12v 55# iPilot bow mounted electric motor.
Then I will have a Garmin 7" GPS/Finder for navigation and looking under the surface.
I think it will be finished in about 6 weeks.
I bought it at Liquid Planet Marine in Melbourne, FL, about 30 minutes north of me.
Mike is sales and Eric, marine mechanic, both helped my design my layout as each boat is built to order.

My new FL fishing partner, Steve Potter from Tracy, CA, now lives about 30 min south of me in Vero Beach, FL.
He has ordered a new "Hewes Redfisher 18" that is 18'10" long and 95" wide with a Yamaha 115hp.

Steve will have the larger skill for medium to larger waters and I will have the small skiff for lots of smaller water that is back in the
mangroves.
