Our classic design FLYING SAUCER is the ideal combination of utility and speed in a small boat. Going like a bomb, or carrying a whale of a passenger load is no problem for this little boat.
The FLYING SAUCER can also be built as an open boat for fishing; as such, she is an ideal cartop boat, easy to get to your favorite fishing spot with a minimum of hassle. The generous beam offers plenty of room for gear and load carrying.
The layout shown offers the styling of the traditional two-cockpit runabout, a look that is unique in a boat of this size. You can have your own classic runabout without all of the expense of a full-size antique. Picture yourself behind the wheel, in the center of her mahogany deck. She's a boat that will draw stares even from the owners of the real thing.
