Have you ever purchased a boat hoping it would do everything? Be the perfect fishing boat, family vessel, holds lots of people, pull a tube or a skier, etc.? Sure you have. But no matter how much you spend, there is always an area where it could be better. For us, we love our Carolina skiff- it’s a 2011 198dlv- a great boat for our family, but not set up for fishing as well as it could be. Over the last couple years we have discovered some economical hacks to help us make our skiff more fishing friendly without breaking the bank. see below for links and a video description.
