Andros Boatworks Backwater 18 (2011-)

1 x 115-hp Evinrude E-TEC

Brief Summary

When it comes to flats boats, there's usually a large tradeoff between handling capabilities and skinny water accessibility. With the Andros Boatworks Backwater 18 we found the opposite to be true. Our tests showed a very capable and nice handling boat in the chop, but one that allowed us to access seemingly impossible shallow water.
