RIVER RUNNER 17’ – 25’

Whether your need is law enforcement, research, environmental protection, or general purpose use, shallow water work boat operations have never been more important than they are today. To meet those needs, Workskiff has taken the rugged durability of their proven commercial hull designs and developed a shallow draft work boat. Each hull is built from marine grade 5086 aluminum with a 0.250” thick bottom and 0.190” thick sides. The internal structure consists of five longitudinal frames with two interlocking transverse bulkheads for strength and rugged durability. The aluminum under deck fuel tank is concealed in a water tight compartment, the hull is filled with closed cell foam for floatation and the deck is self-bailing to ensure maximum safety and durability in rough conditions.

With its near flat bottom shallow draft hull and commercial grade constructions this boat is a durable, low maintenance work horse. Contact our professional sales and engineering staff to develop a solution that fits your needs.
