2013 Ankona Native SUV

If you are looking for a technical poling skiff in great condition, look no further. This Akona 17 ft Native is in fantastic condition and is ready for the water. She comes complete with a Tohatsu 40hp outboard (Tiller) w/125 hours. Motor has always been serviced and maintained. Other features include 20 gal Livewell, Stereo, Garmin ECHO GPS, Trim Tabs, Poling Platform, Trolling Motor Pre Rig, Battery Switch, Aluminum Trailer w/Swing Tongue and Much Much More!

A contemporary interpretation of a classic 1960s Fiber Craft design, the Native SUV (Sportsman Utility Vessel) truly stands out from the poling skiff crowd with its distinctive bow and gently curved sheerline. Also reminiscent of the graceful old Challenger skiffs, the Native SUV has hardened those boats' rounded chines to improve stability and dramatically lightened their layup to reduce draft.

Chop-Eating Bow and Flat Stern

The Native SUV 17 has a 68" beam and a sharp entry that eats chop when trimmed down. And tapers to a flat bottom at the transom, which, makes for an exceptionally shallow draft.

With its higher freeboard and slightly upswept bow, the Native isn't as pure a poling skiff as the lower-profile Advent, but it still holds its own against anything else on the market while also offering improved rough-water capabilities. Of particular note to anglers who often fish solo is the fact that this hull also poles extremely well from the bow.
