I went for a wet test on one back in August. Very nicely finished little rig.. And I do mean little, I had just sold my ECS Glide a few months back and was figuring out what boat(s)to get. I know I want (need) two power boats to fish the way I like in the different locals I frequent.. So a larger skiff (bought a Pelagic Hybrids 20 Panga) and a smaller skiff are in the works, small one yet to be purchased, thinking similar to a wrightwater, but maybe a homebuilt. Back to the wrightwater:
Super dupper skinny water hull with little freeboard, crossing large bodies of water or escaping large wakes in the ditch would get annoying. Poling was of course beyond easy however I thought at the time it really needs some micro keels/strakes to help it track a little better. More importantly I think it needed strakes/keels to stop it from sliding so easily when turning at speed. I know it's something you can get accustomed to but I just don't care for that ultra loose feel when on plane. John, and his crew where testing some strake options/placement when I was there but the demo boat we took out did not have any fitted to it.
John was a pleasure to deal with and the whole experience was really fun, the fit and finish was top notch and really cool to see in a boat that if ordered correctly you could literally pick up and carry over your head. Boats like this a ultra niche' HB skate comes to mind (now nanocraft boats)... Call John and go for a ride, they're cool boats and they certainly get you in the skinny!!
