New Wooldridge 17' Alaskan XL !!!
Wooldridge Boats is proud to announce a new addition to the ever popular AK XL series of boats! Evolved from the 20' XL, the new 17' version is sure to please river runners everywhere. It's incredibly wide bottom (76") matched with Wooldridge's tunnel hull allows the new 17' model to run shallower, get on step quicker, sit level and track better. Free drifting for salmon and steelhead is very popular these days and in order to have a 17' boat that can do this you have to have bottom width. The new 17' XL has the most bottom width that we know of in this length! Here is a few pictures of the build so far.............

Hull thickness is 1/8" with an addtional 12" wide 1/8" thick doubler through the center planning surface to create a composite total of 1/4" down the middle.
Max hp power rating is: Jet=150, prop=140, tiller=90
MacCTD- No, it is not self-bailing. The price for the open model w/ 36 gallon fuel tank, bilge pump, running lights, gas/water seperator, steering system and console, power source panel, front deck (fish box optional), sport rails, extra wide 10" rod trays would run $16,999.00 - Glen

Can you make a small 16-17ft pilothouse boat with a deep V?
