The Vessel: Our Sundance F17 Skiff 

Built for the Back Bays

Our primary vessel is a 2001 Sundance F17 Skiff, a boat specifically engineered for the unique waters of the Jersey Shore. Known for its "flat-bottom" stability and shallow draft, this skiff is the ultimate platform for exploring the sod banks and shallow flats of the Great Egg Harbor Bay and Ocean City’s back bays.

"No-Sway" Stability

One of the main reasons we chose the Sundance F17 is its incredible stability. Whether you are leaning over the gunwale to pull a heavy crab trap or moving around the deck to land a Fluke, this boat stays level. Its wide beam ensures a "No-Sway" experience, making it the perfect choice for seniors, children, and those who might be nervous about "sea legs."

Key Features for Your Trip:

• Shallow Water Access: We can reach the secluded crabbing "hot spots" that larger, deeper boats simply can't get to.

• Open Floor Plan: Plenty of room for the whole family to move around comfortably without tripping over gear.

• Reliable Power: Rigged for efficiency and safety to ensure we spend more time fishing and less time traveling.

• Clean & Maintained: We take immense pride in our gear. The boat is scrubbed after every trip, ensuring a clean environment for your family.

Why the F17 Matters for Your Catch

In South Jersey, the best crabbing often happens in water less than 5 feet deep. The Sundance F17 allows us to glide over sandbars and into the grassy creeks where Blue Claw Crabs congregate. When you book with us, you’re boarding a vessel that was literally built for the job at hand.
