Here is a boat that you skiff fans will enjoy. See cheskiff1 and cheskiff2 under Misc Boat Pics in files. She a flat bottom boat about 18 feet long, and very low-sided.
Construction is traditional.
In addtion, she has an outboard. I would guess that this is the lineal descendent of the sharpie - not in model but in function. She is tied up near the Sultana, but not labeled as an exhibit. All rights reserved.
