Mini boats for kids?? Cougar cub, mini hawk, etc…
Any input on a mini boat to bring a kid out and get them behind the wheel?? Mini hawk, cougar cub, etc?? I think skater also made something really small.
|
Restoring one ( mini hawk)and feel like a kid ! ( who never had one) !!! LOL!!

Looking for the right 17’ whaler for my 14 and 10 year olds.
|
I’ve got a St marten F13, great boat for the kids, and adults that haven’t grown up
|
Find an old 17' Mako. Far better ride than a Whaler and less expensive.

These are back in production at Lilly Sports Boats in Maryland.

A 15 whaler is 15'5 A 17 whaler is 16'4 Yes the beam is about 8 inches difference but the 15 is the more efficient hull A 15 with a Yamaha F60 (4 stroke) will go 41 MPH before the chine walking starts.. |

13’ st martin with a efi merc 40. Awesome all around!
leave the trim off for the kids super safe runs about 30, trim it out for the adults and best ive seen is 43 gps |
