These utility crafts are ideal for the fisherman, hunter, or workman in need of a stable flat-bottom boat. Flats aren't able to cope with the rough or chopper water that well. Although, its possible to jump up on plane easily - although unless the surface is calm the ride could be rough causing a lot of splash due to the hull pounding over each wave.
