That's not true?
My current skiff is a 25 2 stroke tiller with no 12v system and a dry launch trailer. My hubs are from 2008 with probably 100k miles on them. The motor has never missed a beat. I give it a good rise and put it away until next time. A 6 gallon fuel tank will fish several full days. I've known people with more issues with their plastic Hobie than I've had with my skiff.

Did you start this thread to talk about poling skiffs or to bash Hobies?
I've thought about trading in the yak on a skiff. While it would suit me better in some ways, it would limit me in others. I don't have enough room in the garage for both, so for now, it's the yak.
It's a trolling skiff!

What am I looking at? It looks like an aluminum bateau but without a motor?

Risk of motor breaking, trailer breaking, etc.
Add to that risk: gas, oil, preventive maintenance and boat storage.
Boat upkeep can get expensive. There's no denying that.

What is the brand? What did you pay for it?
