17 Mitzi
He knows the deal
I don’t have one but I have ridden in a few of them and talked to a lot of people who have one or have been in one. Great boat in my opinion. Simple layout that works great. Rides pretty good in a chop and is fast and shallow. I’m actually trying to find one with a 70 2 stroke that someone wants to trade me or for a cheap price. Shoreline marine in Georgia has 3 of them 2010 models for 13980 with. A 60 2 stroke.

I’ve had my Mitzi 17 for 3+ years. I fish it hard 4-5 times per week. It is simple, functional and low maintenance. My needs for a skiff are shallow draft (6-7 inches), easy to pole and quiet. The Mitzi performs these tasks very well. Let me know if you want to see the Skiff.
I know that I’m going to get blasted, but I looked at one this weekend at a boat show in NC, I believe a 3yr. old could’ve done a better job with the fit and finish. The older boats must be better because the people that have them love them, but the guys that are building them now seem to be having a hard time finishing them out.
