Looking for a flats skiff...

Anyone trying to get rid of a flats skiff or know someone that is? Still in school so can't really afford the $20k+ cost for a lot of the used ones on the market...
Looking for one around 16 ft with a poling platform and a decent outboard (40-60 hp). Cracked hulls are fine, i'm good with fiberglass repairs.
I've got a pretty clean little 15ft. Fisher aluminum bass boat w/ a 25hp Mercury electric start till steer. I'd be willing to swap or pay+trade for a skiff...
Anyone looking to get rid of something like that let me know! Thanks!

Where do you buy fiberglass?

I would look for a used Carolina and perhaps get a poling platform made.

Actually I couldn't tell ya, my dad's a cropduster and does a lot with fiberglass repairs on wings, hoppers, etc...
Anytime I do a project I just borrow from him and pay him back.
Yea I like the Carolinas, been looking on thehulltruth.com, they've got a lot of boats for sell. $$$$$$$$ though.
hopefully I can find something a bit older, and like you mentioned modify it, build a platform, etc.

BoatTrader.com will be your best bet. Chances are you'll have to travel to get a good deal, as there is a limited number of true fiberglass skiffs in Louisiana.
Did a quick search and there are 4 or 5 under 17 feet for less than 15K.
