2025 ALK2 17HS: Ultra-Shallow Draft Technical Poling Skiff

Built specifically for stalking light-tackle gamefish in extreme shallow waters, the 2025 ALK2 17HS delivers exceptional stealth, agility, and performance. Designed as a technical poling skiff, this 17-footer slides quietly across thin flats, marshlands, and backwater creeks without pushing a heavy displacement wave.

Constructed using high-density foam and 100% composite materials, the 17HS features a light yet durable hull engineered for an ultra-shallow draft and easy tracking under pole power. With wide casting decks, generous dry storage, and an efficient hull design that requires minimal horsepower to run fast, the ALK2 17HS gives skinny-water anglers a feature-packed skiff built to reach fish other boats simply cannot.
