Chittum Skiffs

Chittum Skiffs is a Florida boat builder specializing in high-performance flats and shallow-water fishing skiffs. Founded around the vision of legendary guide, boat builder, and entrepreneur Hal Chittum, the company aims to combine advanced design with high-tech composite materials to create capable, comfortable boats for anglers and guides.

Its lineup includes the 24-foot Islamorada bay boat, Mangrove and Laguna Madre models in 18- and 21-foot lengths, Islamorada skiffs, tournament-edition R models, and the Challenger. Depending on the model, boats feature shallow-draft designs, tunnels, carbon construction options, and engine pairings ranging from 90 to 500 horsepower. Chittum also highlights patented spray rails and sound-dampening technology, with an emphasis on quiet, dry, stable performance and easy poling.

Customers can explore new builds, pre-owned boats, apparel, and model-selection guidance. The company offers factory tours and test drives at its Palm City, Florida headquarters, as well as access to demo opportunities through dealers. Chittum supports fishing guides and owners through its guide network, events, tournaments, and service resources.
