- This Micro Skiff build was extremely cheap and easy to build! In this video I link up with Nathan Ankerson who does a full walk through of his 16' micro skiff build.

Nathan’s grandfather was a professional ship builder and a perfectionist. Unfortunately he passed away the year Nathan was born so all that knowledge was lost. But oddly enough Nathan managed to pick up a few skills of his own.
Wow it’s in blood
I'll chose low budget form and function over big dollar boats all day, every day. I dig the color too. Great work, brutha!
🙌
Nathan Ankersen, great grandson and grandson of Gulf coast boat builders and great grandson of a French merchant marine who was the ships carpenter. I know you have made them proud.
Wow no mention at all of the brother who is a merchant mariner..
@@ianmankersenhe didn’t come out his brothers balls
Nice job, Nathan!
Sounds a lot like a great story for the TinyBoatNation crew!
This is for me. I always need a project and I want to have a nicer boat than a kayak one day so this sounds like the way for me! Big savings too!
Definitely, I’m looking forward to my build!
I have the same hull with 25 Johnson. I fiberglassed a casting platform and repurposed an old aluminum step for my poling platform. Aluminum extension pole for the push pole. It’s an amazing rig. $2,100 total invested
Heck yeah!!
Great video love to c build start to finish video series
Looking into it now
It really is an incredibly versatile boat. Part time submarine. On its maiden voyage it nearly escaped. I hear his nephew has really strong arms. These stories only add to the legend! Southern Salt should come out fishing with us on a brothers trip and see firsthand the majesty of an Ankersen fishing trip.

Can’t believe this doesn’t have more likes, really hope y’all do a build video
DO IT!! That would be a great group of video's!!
🙌
I went through a similar process during Covid. I bought a 14’ hull & Customized from there. Took me about the same amount of time about six months. Coincidentally about the same cost as well.

mom, HEYY MOM! LOOK I'M OH THE TVs!!!! Thanks for the feature Nate, let's start picking paint colors for your new ride.
@nathankersen4695 Do you have a build thread anywhere? Really interested in what all you did. Looks great!
I would love to see that. Get them likes up!
🙌
Auburn man! Bravo!
I would love to see that skiff build video!
🙌 🙌
Definitely do a boat build would love too see it
🙌
where did you get the black trim thats goes around the whole boat
Awesomeness!
🙌
I love it. I built one but im looking for the black molding like yours for mine. Could you tell me where you got it

Please build and film that would be awesome 👍😎
🙌 🙌
Sweet boat! War Eagle!!
Nice!
🙌
My wife and buddies thought I was crazy because I sold my 23’ bay boat last year to build a 17’ mod-v Jon boat into a skiff. But I love the boat I built and it is way better in the marsh although I do miss going offshore
Yeah man something about fishing off of a boat you built just seems awesome!!
The how to build video would be a great idea - I have a 18 foot deep V I can change in to a skiff boat like this.
🙌
This guy should be able to make a killing down at the coast rebuilding these things!
No doubt!!
What kind of boat did it start out as?
That would be an awesome video. Hope it happens.
🙌
I'm about to build mine. I found an old 14 ft one and I'm going to start on it this weekend. I would like to see how you extended it because I wanna extend mine 3 more feet.
I’ll see if I can get Nate to comment on that. I’ll be starting my build soon as well
So what was the make of the boat in this video that he started out with. Can not understand what he said because it was said so quickly. Any help would be greatly appriciated
Is 25HP strong enough for fishing the intracoastal waterway and/or flats for redfish for example.
I definitely think so but it depends on a ton of factors
If the transom isn't rotten wood inside the fiberglass. Mostly are already . All those old boats have rotten wood floors underneath the fiberglass. I think they replaced all that here somehow.
Impressive.. job well done.. i would fish the hell out of that boat
🙌 🙌
I couldn't hear him when he was telling about the push pole, where did he say it came from? I want one or more
Craig Boutwell Bamboo Farms in Andalusia, AL. You can find them at Southern Bama.
Thank you very much 😊
I loved the walkthrough, and the description of the build, but $5200 and about five months is not a deal at all for that boat. A labor of love, sure, and kudos to his skills. But for that money, you can get a trailered 16-18 foot boat ready to launch from even a semi motivated seller. Love your channel, please keep up the awesome videos.
Not in my state!
Hear that, I bought a brand new gheenoe lt10 for $2600 and a brand new Suzuki 20hp with electric start for $3300.
I love the color. Where can i buy that paint?
I’ll have to check on that one for you
I got a stiffy guide push pole and some free labor if you do it bro!
Let’s do it lol
Build a skiff!!!
🙌
Roll tide!!!
10-4 lol
War Damn Eagle! Nice boat.
非常漂亮都船😊
Make the video for us regardless!
What kind of boat did you start with?
I asked the same queation
Still don't know the brand.
BUILD ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Coming soon!!
👍
You lost me at the auburn cushion! RTR!
🤦🏻♂️
Nice job. I couldn't find a john boat during the covid hoax so i built my own with wood and foam. Its 12.5' x 4'. Stable, quiet and floats in 2". Lots of storage. 60 hrs from scratch. Love this thing.
I'll give him 7k for it 😂❤
Great starting point. I'll rock, paper, scissors you for the rest.
You go first.
Go UGA
Right on lol
74 trihull new. 40 hp they say boating expensive but boat was 275
Excellent find!!
Ok, it’s got 40k likes, it’s on like donkey Kong?
👍👍👍👍👍boat video
Takeway: Boating is not cheap, folks.
1st
🙌
What do you mean what he was actually saying?
Even a six year old understood him.
Thanks cool video of how poor people engineer things to work, never count the southern folks out nate keep casting and cooking.
Poor? Really? Like food stamps and govt housing poor?
For 5200 you can buy a good..better boat..no work involved..
2-300 bucks all day long sounds like Bullshit off Rip. Boat and trailer? Doubtful
Depends on where you live, theres a million of em on Facebook here in Florida for $200-$300
@@ShrimpyOutdoorsWhat’s the name of the hull?
Logic can't hear; the goofy dude never said 100. He said hundreds. That's way worse. Lol
That's a nasty "stain" on your seat cushion! Did you have an accident on the water? LOL GO DAWGS!!!
