NEW & IMPROVED
FOR 2009
The
RIVER HAWK
B-60
Kingfish
Edition
shallow water boat
Based on the proven RIVER HAWK B-60 hull and designed by The Kingfish, himself.
Just like the "king of all fishermen" - the Belted Kingfisher - this stealthy boat will get you
on the fish undetected and allow you to catch them before they realize they've been discovered.
15' 3 ” length with a 5 foot beam ~ utilizing reverse chine outrigger theory technology and Coast Guard approved flotation, the RIVER HAWK B-60 Kingfish Edition provides speed, stealth, roominess, massive storage, shallow draft, a high degree of unsinkability, and exceptional stability for the stand-up fly fisherman.
Designed by a FLY FISHERMAN for all types of fishing, but ideally suited for STAND-UP FLY FISHING!
The
B-60
Kingfish Edition
also known as the
B-60
"Kingfisher"
is a
combination
BASS BOAT & FLATS BOAT
with large elevated front casting deck featuring massive under-deck dry storage hatch and additional under-deck battery and gear stowage; a large flat center deck with under-gunwale rod storage tubes for 9' fly rods; and a large elevated rear casting/poling deck with under-deck fuel, battery & gear stowage. This boat is all decks with plenty of closet space!
Hand layed fiberglass hull with heavy-duty keel and all-composite decks, floor and transom keep the boat to a mere 240 lbs. and there is no wood (to rot) used anywhere in this boat!
Stainless steel pedestal seat mounts on front & rear decks allow use of bass-type seats or stand-up seats and a heavy bow plate allows trolling motor mounting for serious fishing (transom-mount motors may be mounted on the bow with the optional TMM-1 Kingfish Edition Trolling Motor Mount).
TWO MEN CAN STAND WHILE CASTING FLY RODS ON THIS BOAT!
“The new RIVER HAWK B-60 Kingfish Edition is the ideal solution for ponds, lakes, rivers, bays, inshore or flats fishing. It excels in shallow water where other boats can’t go and is a serious fishing machine with abundant features, storage and exceptional stability for the stand-up fly fisherman.”
The Kingfish
boat designer
The RIVER HAWK B-60 Kingfish Edition boat was designed by a FLY FISHERMAN for all types of fishing, but is especially suited for STAND-UP FLY FISHING ~ with a large elevated front casting deck, flat center deck floor and large elevated rear casting/poling deck. The B-60 hull is based on a modified canoe-type design which incorporates outrigger theory technology and a 5 foot wide beam to provide exceptional roominess and stability. Two grown men can stand while casting fly rods in this boat! The B-60 Kingfish Edition has the stability of much larger boats and puts the "Jello-under-foot" feel of jon boats and skiffs to shame.
The B-60 "Kingfisher" is designed for ponds, lakes, rivers, bays, in-shore and flats fishing and can access skinny waters as shallow as 4" (with motor up). Now you can fish the areas only accessible by wading before ~ at an extremely frugal price. Remove your outboard motor and you can fish any of the NO-MOTOR ZONES or “Electric-Only” waters. At only 240 lbs., a child can pole this boat from the rear deck ~ or mount an Igloo cooler on the rear deck with optional tie-down ring fasteners and turnbuckles and you've got an extremely inexpensive elevated poling platform (true poling platform also available).
