A splendid idea, but, I'm not sure it is enough of an emergency for me to live with accepting the help.

Aww..c'mon. We'll have a fund raiser. Finally, a cause that makes perfect sense.
All kidding aside....what's the base price on that little beauty?

Angler/Panga 26' Diesel ... offshores popular in Texas and Florida. Was thinking of buying one in 2006 but went with Yarcraft instead.
Anybody ever run one of these diesel CCs?

Got rid of mine. Too tippy, very sensitive to trim...I had a Diaz panga. Perhaps the commercial ones similar to the Sta Rosalia boats would fair
better.
The harder I work, the luckier I get

Here's an interesting stretch.
Very efficient, diesel, (no spark boom bye bye) light, proven stern design married to the very proven Tolman stitch and glue wood core fiberglass
skiffs of the Alaskan Pacific. This is a beachable inboard.
$10,000 one of a kind prototype.
http://www.fishyfish.com/renn_tolman/index.html
If the idea of a traditional plywood boat on the Pacific side appeals, check out the design for the Redondo Skiff, it is a scaled-down 16 foot version
of a Tolman Wide Body. Plywood (almost) in name only.
This diesel design employs a 3" hard chine common on fiberglass. pangas. [[I just re-read the piece, and this is based on his "Standard" design,
WITHOUT the chine]]

Looks like a good workable salmon-hauler for beach set-nets and similar shallow work. Perfect for some allowed areas near Alaskan estuaries. Low
cost, economical operation, and speed is not important to an owner. I will assume it's self-draining.

The poor panga...has to be the most misperceived boat on the American and Baja market.
They range in size from 14-45 ft long and go from almost zero deadrise to the 22 degrees deadrise on the model I was looking at in Texas.
The ratio of length to beam is vast...from too narrow ...to too wide for it's length.
Some are as rough as nails finish ..and some are very high end equal to most any boat..and they are all called a 'panga'..
Love em or hate em...they are here to stay.

I like it's general work boat look, but since it has a diesel inboard, why not fill in the outboard recess? I would also deck over the bow and install
a spray deflector. With that little bit of flare, it might want to bury the bow. A bit of deck and a coaming might help keep your skivies dry when it
gets rough.

Hi Builder...if you go into the Tolman site you see that MOST of these boats are not left open for the NW. The big thing in the design was to provide
a light, strong, trailerable skiff that was beachable. The moderate deadrise, the "fiberglass-like" 3" or 4" chine, and a prow high enough to keep her
from digging-in if surfing a following sea.
The heavy spray rail has also proven to be a strong element for a happy skiff.
I haven't read why the Seabright was left with an open transom.
These boats are housed with everything from a walk-thru like a Skiff America 20, to beautiful cuddys and wheelhouses. Realize you can build one in
the back yard up to 26-28 feet!!

We must be entering different lotteries
My dreams are a little more on these lines.
Fuel bills should be no problem after winning the lottery.

It might have to be an extraordinarily large lottery, but then, I think, I'd buy this one and just name it after myself and be my own country. What
fun...I could design a flag..... It probably already has it's own air force!

Think of the cartel type compound on the waterfront you could get for the $$ of one of those beauties. Then hire a cruiser with crew when ever you
wanted. And still be $$ ahead.

Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.
I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.
