I've driven by a couple times...they have lots of good looking, smaller skiffs outside. These boats are probably no more than 16' long, but look really sweet. Haven't made it inside though...

He sells the East Cape Canoes technical poling skiffs.
I saw a Sherman tank flats boat there one day. Had a pro-drive motor, poling platform, interior designed for saltwater fishing. all welded aluminum. It just plain looked tuff.
The rocks around here will be crushed by that thang!
I think he also sells outboards now too.

I met the owner in St Marks flats one morning and asked him to give you a call about being a sponsor on the site. He said he was also in the automotive repair business and they were jsut getting started. He was in one of the East Cape boats.

His name is Fred Jones. He's a good friend of mine.
Most of the aluminum boats are Gatortrax boats. He is the dealer for Prodrive motors and Beavertail motors. He is also an authorized Mercury dealer.
The rigs he's selling aren't cheap. They're quality products.

Can't help you with the stiffy.
But he has a few push poles in stock.

TC's right. They aint cheap, but they are selling good stuff. I checked into one of their Pro-Drives when they first opened. Seems they could do a little better on their prices.
