A revolutionary design in the Squirt Boat world ! The Skunk reconciles concepts everybody thought incompatible : radical low volume and comfort, flat hull + short size and record "downtime".

Legs and feet are comfortable despite a radical volume and a extremely concave deck. "Mistery moves" potential is maximized by a unique hull design and the important surface the deck offers to the current. Result : a Squirt boat as comfortable and user friendly as a playboat, opening the doors to all latest radical surface and underwater moves. You will be surprised by the easiness you'll have to break your downtime records !

Built by Murky Water, Canada. Available in Europe through Pierre Villecourt, France.
