2024 18′ Mosquito – ‘Salt Marshes and Cloud White’ with a 70 HP Yamaha 4 stroke
At 18’2” in length and with a 70″ beam, the Mosquito is a very capable hull for many situations – however it’s designed to do one thing with absolute perfection: silently stalk inshore game fish in the shallowest coastal waters. And we’re convinced this skiff will do that better than any other skiff on the market.
