For anglers who want to explore shallow water without giving up performance in deeper coastal waters, Action Craft Boats are built with a clear purpose: creating fishing machines that are ready for wherever the next adventure leads.
With more than four decades of boat-building experience, Action Craft focuses on performance, durability, shallow-water capability and fishability. The result is a lineup of flats and bay boats designed for anglers who expect more from their boat.
What Makes Action Craft Boats Different?
Action Craft pays close attention to the details that matter most to serious anglers. Its boats are designed and built around the idea of maximizing time on the water, whether you're navigating skinny backwater flats or heading toward deeper coastal fishing grounds.
Some of the key Action Craft advantages include:
- Qui-Dry Hull designed to provide a quieter, drier ride
- Pocket-Drive technology for improved shallow-water performance
- Hand-laid composite construction
- Angler-focused layouts and storage
- Spacious livewell systems
- Fishing-focused designs built for both flats and bay waters
Qui-Dry® Hull: A Quieter, Drier Ride
One of Action Craft's signature innovations is its Qui-Dry® Hull. The hull incorporates a transitional chine, spray rail and modified running strakes designed to reduce hull slap and direct water away from the boat.
For anglers, that can mean a quieter approach to the flats and a drier ride when navigating choppy coastal waters.
Pocket-Drive for Shallow-Water Performance
Action Craft's Pocket-Drive is another feature designed specifically with shallow-water anglers in mind. The hull design helps reduce running draft by directing water toward the propeller and allowing for higher outboard mounting.
The goal is improved shallow-water access while also supporting performance and efficiency.
Flats Boats and Bay Boats
Action Craft offers boats for different fishing environments.
Flats Boats
Flats boats are built for anglers who want to reach skinny water and pursue inshore species. Models such as the Flatsmaster and Flyfisher focus on shallow-water performance, angler-focused layouts, storage and livewell capabilities.
Coastal Bay Boats
Coastal Bay boats provide additional versatility for anglers who want to transition from shallow flats to deeper coastal waters. They're designed to combine shallow-water accessibility with the capability needed for a variety of coastal fishing adventures.
