                        Flats boats

                        There is no other boat better for running on the flats than a dedicated flats boat, particularly as an angler wishing to catch fish that live in shallow coastal waters where these boats can often operate in less than two feet of water.

                        Expert Flats boats Reviews

                          In partnership with:

                          |

                          What are flats boats?

                          Flats boats are small, trailerable vessels generally used for boating pursuits such as saltwater fishing. Ranging from 12 feet to 26 feet, these types of vessels usually average 19 feet. These boats are built by a wide variety of boat building companies with hull types including modified vee, flat, tunnel, catamaran and other designs. A total of 573 brand-new boats and 319 used boats are among the 892 flats boats that are now available on Boat Trader, which features listings from both professional yacht brokers and boat dealerships and private individuals countrywide.

                          What are the best flats boats?

                          Currently, some of the most popular manufacturers of flats boats include Shoalwater, Hewes, Mako, Spyder and Tracker. Flats boats models are manufactured with outboard, outboard-4S, outboard-2S, electric and inboard propulsion systems, available in gas, electric, LPG and other fuel systems. The top, most popular flats boats brands on Boat Trader during the previous 30 days were Beavertail Skiffs, East Cape, Hewes, Maverick and Shallow Sport.

                          How much do flats boats cost?

                          Prices for flats boats on Boat Trader range from a reasonable $1,793 at the modest side to $194,705 for the most advanced types. Models with the most power can accommodate motors up to 425 horsepower, while more compact utility models may have as little as 24 horsepower engines on them (although the average engine size is 150 HP).

                          Why are flats boats popular?

                          Flats boats are popular for their remarkably shallow draft and average beam, features that make these boats appropriate for saltwater fishing. Flats boats are also popular boats for rivers and lakes and other shallow fresh bodies of water. From our current listings, the average number of passengers that flats boats can accommodate is 6 people with a maximum of 11. Boat Trader is positive you'll find the boat you're searching for with 892 flats boats now posted for sale and 97 boats uploaded in the past month.
