They say that dynamite comes in small packages – and when it comes to the Elf 1350 Fisherman, the old adage certainly rings true. Never again will you have to be choosy about your secret fishing spots as this fun runabout will allow you to cruise the waterways all day on a little more than a whiff of fuel.
There are a number of reasons why smaller runabout boats could suit you, but topping the list has to be practicality.
Measuring just 4.08 metres in length with a beam of 1.7 metres, the Elf 1350 Fisherman is just so easy to own. Light on its trailer, easy to launch and a pleasure to skipper, this craft is sure to be desired by those looking for something extra nimble and affordable. What’s more, it punches above its category too as it can handle both fresh and saltwater adventures, thanks to its wet deck which allows any water which may make its way onboard to be quickly drained out the back.
DECK LAYOUT
You’d be forgiven for thinking that a 13.5foot craft can offer little more than the bare essentials, but really, the Elf Fisherman is geared towards giving you all that you could need for a day’s angling at your local hotspots. While the centre console design adds good stability to the craft, it also provides for a walk around layout with rod storage in both gunnels. There’s also padding along the sides to give you thigh support when you’ve up against the side and reeling in a decent catch.
