SKIFFS
1480
The 1480 is perfect for both young and young at heart boaters who want the security of Maritime's 100% composite, quality, "unsinkable" construction in a safe, stable and manageable sized boat. Ideal for inshore fishing or as a tender for a larger boat.
1690
This "big" little boat can just as easily be configured for fly fishing as it can be for family time out in the bay. This wide beamed 16 footer is perfect for fishing shallow waters and is easily trailered. Like all Maritimes, it's "unsinkable", self-bailing and extremely easy to clean and maintain.
1890
The cornerstone of Maritime's line of dry, stable seaworthy boats, the 1890 delivers unparalleled versatility, performance and excellent fuel efficiency. A favorite of both commercial and recreational fisherman for its ability to withstand use and loving abuse the 1890 has a large uncomplicated interior. This is the ideal low maintenance "do anything boat".
2090

With its 100% composite construction, solid fiberglass grid system, ethanol friendly polyethylene fuel tank, heavy duty hardware and "unsinkable" hull the 2090 is one of the most rugged and dependable skiffs you will ever own.

CENTER CONSOLE
18 Defiant
The 18 Defiant uses the same great hull design as our best selling 1890 rolled edge skiff but features a stylish wrap around non-skid deck, under gunwale rod racks, stainless steel mooring bit and easily accommodates an optional livewell and or washdown system.

The 20 Defiant is nimble, responsive, and fuel efficient. Beneath the console there is a step down area that provides 50' of headroom, providing excellent storage space and allowing one to comfortably use an optional porta potti.

The 23 Defiant has the same layout as the 20-footer but delivers additional offshore sea-keeping features provided by the larger, deeper 23' hull design and wider beam. Balanced with a deadrise of 50 degrees in the bow and 14 degrees in the aft you get a powerful ride with maximum fuel efficiency.
25 Defiant
The 25 Defiant is the largest, boldest center console model we offer. Identical to the 23' model except for the aft section of the cockpit and transom, the 25 footer can be powered with single or twin outboards and comes standard with a fold-away bench seat and fishbox / storage locker.

CENTER CABIN

MORE INFO

On the bow you’ll find side deck width starts at 10-1/2″, and gets progressively wider as you walk past the low profile trunk cabin. Conveniently located cabin rails and a high-pattern bow rail provide added security as you maneuver forward. Both side decks and the cabin top have a gritty non-skid surface. A large anchor locker is located on the port side forward, it drains overboard and is deep enough for fender storage.

Deck hardware on the Challenger is heavy-duty throughout. 10″ stainless deck cleats are bolted through the deck and the hull flange, resulting in an attachment system far superior to deck-only mounted hardware. Mid-ship cleats are standard. The stainless bow bitt and its companion 6″ bow chock are adequately sized for large mooring pendants. The bow rail is 1″ stainless and starts at 20″ deepening to 24″ forward. The house rails curve down the trailing edge of the house wings for added security when climbing up or down from the side decks. The roof rail and seat rails provide great cockpit handholds.
