Islamorada 18 | Legacy Edition

The Islamorada 18 Legacy Edition is the skiff that caught the entire skiff industry asleep at the helm.

THE ISLAMORADA 18 LEGACY. THE NEXT GENERATION OF FLATS SKIFFS.
“THIS IS NOT A BOAT YOU BUY, USE AND ABUSE TIL IT’S OLD OR COPIED A DOZEN TIMES AND SELL FOR A NEW ONE…
IT’S A LIFETIME INVESTMENT, A BOAT YOU CAN PASS ON TO YOUR CHILDREN…

The Legacy is our original deck layout with 4 hatches on the rear deck and one locker in the bow. Our signature floating console cooler with 360-degree toe kick and cooler seat. There is a large, 30 gallon, livewell/release well in the rear locker that doubles as dry storage. The lamination schedules are the same as the Snake Bight Editions and it can also be built on the 2 degree hull.

About the Legacy Edition

The Legacy utilizes the highest quality materials including 4 types of carbon fiber and a special high density racing core to give the best possible weight to strength ratios in the best design in the flats boat world.

This skiff is truly the finest boat that can be built today, but there is a downside. In this case, it is the expense and the difficulty of this type of construction. The materials cost is far greater than conventional boat building material and the craftsman doing this type of construction have to be highly trained and skilled. It takes a lot more time to build this way; the process simply cannot be rushed. We believe the end result is well worth it. For professional guides, owners of sportfish boats with a skiff on the bow and serious anglers worldwide, Chittum Skiffs has taken the state of the art of the shallow water skiff to the highest level possible.
