what is a skiff boat

A skiff boat is a type of small boat that can be used for various purposes such as fishing, leisure, and utility. The term "skiff" is often used as a catch-all for any type of boat that has a few common characteristics. These characteristics include a shallow, flat-bottomed hull, a pointed bow, and a square stern. Skiffs are typically powered by outboard motors and can be made of wood or other materials. They are easy to handle on the water, easy to tow with a light-duty tow vehicle, and are also easy to afford in the first place. Skiffs are popular boats because they are reliable and require little maintenance beyond basic outboard motor maintenance and rinsing the boat down at the end of the day. However, skiffs are generally small in size and may not be suitable for larger groups of people or for use in rough waters.
