The Skiff
The 2022 Hell’s Bay 18 Waterman
The Waterman is a no-nonsense, high-performance sight fishing machine. Stripped down to the essentials, it’s a pure expression of what a Hell’s Bay skiff is meant to be—precision, speed, and stealth. Designed to excel in the back country and beaches of Boca Grande Florida. The Waterman is not just a boat—it’s a purpose-built fishing weapon.
