If you’re hoping to spend time in the water near the Port of Houston or in Galveston Bay, there’s no better type of boat to do it in than a bay boat. But with so many boats nowadays trying to be all things to all people, it’s hard to find the perfect bay boat. We here at LMC Marine Center want to make sure you get exactly what you’re looking for, not almost exactly, which is why we’ve put together a few reasons to buy a Skeeter® bay boat below.

Specialized Design

Like we mentioned, too many manufacturers are making too many boats that try to fit every kind of boating style imaginable. While those models can be useful in some scenarios, they’re never perfect for any environment. Skeeter® bay boats, however, are exactly what they sound like—boats designed and constructed specifically to be used in bays and other inshore and nearshore areas. These vessels make no sacrifices to their layout or function trying to be good at everything, making them especially perfect for their intended purpose.

Perfect Fishing Boat

While many boats can claim to be perfect for fishing, Skeeter® bay boats don’t have much competition. These boats range between 21’6” and 24’6”, making them more spacious and stable than many comparable boats. The durable V-shaped hull also allows them to cut through rough water and withstand minor impacts with submerged obstacles. 

While bay boats are primarily for sticking to shallower areas, they also need to be able to handle some chop and deeper water. Skeeter bay boats are perfect for just that, expanding your open water range without sacrificing the shallow water performance you need. You’ll have access to entire swathes of fishing areas that you might not have been able to safely reach, before.

Local Manufacturing

As important as it can be to know what a boat’s designed to do and what it’s good at, it’s also vitally important to know where and how it was made. Luckily for you, Skeeter® boats are all built locally right here in the Lone Star State. The company’s manufacturing facilities and headquarters are located in Kilgore, Texas, just a few hours away from the coast!
